[OE-core] [PATCH 0/4] Some optimizations on top time selftest checks

[leonardo.sandoval.gonzalez at linux.intel.com]

From: Leonardo Sandoval <leonardo.sandoval.gonzalez at linux.intel.com>

* On my local host test, the optimization went from 44 to 8 minutes with the following command

oe-selftest -r \
buildoptions.ImageOptionsTests.test_read_only_image \
bbtests.BitbakeTests.test_non_gplv3 \
buildoptions.ImageOptionsTests.test_ccache_tool \
buildoptions.ImageOptionsTests.test_read_only_image

  * Before series applied
