[OE-core] [PATCH] shadow: improve reproducibility by hard-coding shell path

[Martin Hundebøll]

The shadow configure script tries really hard to detect the running
shell to make sure it doesn't do unsupported calls.

On my system the shell is detected as /bin/sh, while a build in an
ubuntu docker it resolves to /bin/bash. And since the shell path is
baked into the target binaries through config.h, the build becomes
inreproducible.

Fix reproducibility by hard-coding the shell to be /bin/bash

I wasn't whether to use /bin/bash or /bin/sh; comments are welcome...
