[OE-core] [PATCH] image_types.bbclass: add WIC_CREATE_EXTRA_ARGS

[Ed Bartosh]

Hi Christopher,

Thank you for the patch! I like the idea.

Would you mind adding or modifying wic oe-selftest to cover this?

PS: You've mentioned --bmap as a possible use case scenario for this. I
don't think this is the case as it's simpler to use wic.bmap image
type to achieve this. It's implemented by this patchset:
