[OE-core] [RFC] move directfb from oe-core

directfb.org has been down for about a year now. Our attempts to locate
a trustworthy source from Github has failed to provide a definite answer.

https://github.com/deniskropp/DirectFB/issues/2#issuecomment-226316231

So, there are three choices for us:

1. move this recipe from oe-core to meta-oe
2. just drop this recipe from oe-core
3. give more time to directfb maintainers (~6 months) and then decide

Choice number 1 looks better, considering there are active users for the
directfb recipe.

Please share your opinions and we can reach a decision based on that.

[YOCTO #8489]
