[OE-core] [PATCH 0/2] wic: looking by plugins and .wks file in all layers

[João Henrique Ferreira de Freitas]

Hi,

This introduces a little wic usability enhanced. Now wic has the
ability to search in all layers looking by .wks files and plugins.

The aim is to provide the layers a way to keep .wks and plugins that
they use. Without this patch the user need to inform the full path of .wks, or put it
in scripts directory. Or, in case of plugins, only putting in scripts directory.

Example:

In .wks case, inside my custom layer I have the following files: 

scripts/lib/image/canned-wks/
 otns-directdisk-devel.wks
 otns-directdisk.wks
 otns-directsdcard-devel.wks
 otns-directsdcard.wks
 otns-nobml-directdisk-devel.wks
 otns-nobml-directsdcard-devel.wks

So, I do:

 $ wic list images
  otns-directdisk-devel                         Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  otns-directdisk                               Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  otns-nobml-directdisk-devel                   Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  otns-nobml-directsdcard-devel                 Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  otns-directsdcard                             Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  otns-directsdcard-devel                       Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
  mkefidisk                                     Create an EFI disk image
  directdisk                                    Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image

And to plugins case, in another layer, I have:

scripts/lib/mic/plugins/source/
 bootimg-pcbios-myplugin.py


To sum up, this enhanced wic because users could keep .wks and plugins inside their own layers.

I don't know if using the 'scripts/lib/' is the best to keep files in layers. Any suggestion?

Thanks.
