[OE-core] [bitbake][RFC PATCH 0/1] Proposed fix for layer branch mismatch issue

[Paul Eggleton]

RFC - ccing the OE-Core list for review. If we apply this, do people
think we can commit to updating the LAYERVERSION in OE-Core at least on
every release and setting versioned LAYERDEPENDS in other layers so that
users get a sensible error if they use incompatible branches? (This also
provides us with a mechanism to handle these types of issues across
changes in master, as well.)

Thoughts?
