[OE-core] [PATCH] conf/bitbake.conf: default HOMEPAGE to blank instead of unknown

[Paul Eggleton]

The default value for HOMEPAGE of "unknown" has been in place since the
early OE-Classic days, but it doesn't really make sense - "unknown" is
not a valid URL and it just means we have to explicitly check for this
hardcoded string if we're displaying the value in some form of UI, such
as Toaster. There is some code in the unmaintained oelint.bbclass to
check for this value, presumably on the assumption that the recipe will
explicitly set it to "" if there really isn't a homepage, but looking at
recipes in OE-Core and meta-oe suggests that we haven't been using this
convention for some time (with one exception in the latter) and it's
rather uncommon these days to have no URL to associate with a recipe.
