[OE-core] [PATCH 3/7] kerneldev: create kernel-devsrc packaging

kernel-devsrc is responsible for creating and a packaging an environment
appropriate for kernel development (on or off target).

To create this support, we only need to copy/install the results of the
virtual/kernel providers build in the staging dir ... with some minor
manipulations to the source tree (.git removal and a clean up). This
produces a source tree that is capable of rebuilding the kernel on the
target.

Installing the kernel-devsrc package on a target (along with a
toolchain) is all that remains to be done.

 $ cd /usr/src/kernel
 $ make oldconfig
 $ make -j2 bzImage
