[OE-core] [PATCH] linux-libc-headers: exclude drm headers from sysroot

While diagnosing a problem with xf86-video-intel I noticed we had two
copies of drm headers in the sysroot; one from here and one from
the libdrm package.   The xf86-video-intel turned out to be another
thing, but that doesn't mean we want two copies in the sysroot with
different content and luck of include path indicating which one we
get.

This one landed in usr/include/drm and the libdrm one put its files
at usr/include/libdrm, so there was no obvious over-write conflict.

The obvious risk here would be unearthing implicit dependencies on
the libdrm; things trying to build before it has populated the sysroot
but two full highly parallel builds containing a full desktop graphics
suite did not show any issues.
