[OE-core] [PATCH 3/3] file: don't replace host file when built natively

To avoid races over the file binaries being replaced mid-build we made
file-native an assume-provided binary and check for it at startup, but target
file still needs a native file binary of the same version to compile the magic
data.

The least invasive way of doing this is to build a native file but use
NATIVE_PACKAGE_PATH_SUFFIX to ensure it isn't on PATH, and tell the target build
where to find the native binary.  To ensure that the host libmagic and the
libmagic provided by file-replacement-native don't cause build races, don't
install libmagic if building natively.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] When using the host file, respect FILE_COMPILE
+
+If we're cross-compiling and not using the file binary that was just built,
+execute the binary that we've been told to use (via FILE_COMPILE) when checking
+the version instead of assuming that "file" is correct as the actual compile
+uses FILE_COMPILE so different binaries may be used.
