[OE-core] [PATCHv3] devtool-source.bbclass: Only create each patch branch once

For conditonally applied patches based on SRC_URI overrides, the
devtool-source class would try to create a new branch for each override
assignment as a postfunc to do_patch, but if the same override was used
multiple times, it would try to create the same branch multiple times,
causing errors like

> Exception: bb.process.ExecutionError: Execution of
\   'git checkout f0f0f0f0f0ff0f0f0f0f0f0f0f0f0f0f0ff0f0f0 -b devtool-override-foo'
\   failed with exit code 128:
> fatal: A branch named 'devtool-override-foo' already exists.

This change makes sure that the devtool-source bbclass will only create
one branch per override.

v1 -> v2: Peter Kjellerstedt pointed out some issues with v1; this updated
change is simpler. In addition to what Richard said about it causing failures
in oe-selftest. I had a issues running oe-selftest, mostly because of the large
storage requirements of /tmp and issues with company internal git hooks.  I
think I managed to run all the tests with passing results now, but please be
vigilante of testcase failures; sorry in advance!

v2 -> v3: it seems i can manage to use git send-email/format-patch properly
today due to serious pebkac issues, sorry for the spam. Remove change-id and
re-add the patch "changelog".
