[OE-core] [PATCH] ofono: update to 1.28

[Alexander Kanavin]

You need to add ell recipe to oe-core, add yourself or the ofono
maintainer to maintainers.inc for it, and make a patch to remove ell
from meta-oe.

ell removal patch goes to oe-devel list.

Also you can clean up the ell recipe and update ell as well to latest
version at the same time.
