[OE-core] [PATCH 1/3] oeqa/utils/commands.py: Add oeqa_copy function

[mariano.lopez at linux.intel.com]

From: Mariano Lopez <mariano.lopez at linux.intel.com>

This new function is just a call to shutil.copy2() with
follow_symlinks set to False. This function is needed
when using shutil.copytree() to preserve the symlinks.
