Recipes in OE core and meta-oe (possibly others too) package bash completion
files in a similar but inconsitent manner. This patch series adds a class
bash-completion.bbclass that creates a subpackage containing files installed to
the common bash-completion paths.

Prior to this series some recipes created bash-completion subpackages which had
no RDEPENDS, others with bash-completion and yet others with bash. I decided to
have the class add an RDEPENDS for bash-completion and move bash-completion to
OE-core for this reason. If someone has a different view on what should be done
please, speak up.

I'll be posting an accompanying series to openembedded-devel for meta-oe.
