[OE-core] [RFC PATCH 0/4] Master image generation and testing

[Stefan Stanacar]

Hello,

This is what I currently use for doing automated deployment
for a genericx86-64 image. More details on the commit
messages. There is nothing particular to genericx86-64,
it should work on any EFI-enabled device with gummiboot as bootloader.

Also see YB#1596 and it's sub-bug #5614 for a bit of background.
Any comments, questions, most welcome.

Cheers,
Stefan

Note that this is actually v3.
v1 and v2 [1] were sent on the poky mailing list, as everything was added to meta-yocto-bsp layer.
Nothing much changed since v2 except moving the files around.
Changes in this version include:
 - rebase on top of meta
 - add to the master image only the required utilities instead of an entire packagegroup
 - use TEST_POWERCONTROL_EXTRA_ARGS with TEST_POWERCONTROL_CMD
 - split the second patch in the earlier series in two
