[OE-core] [PATCH 1/3] update-alternatives.bbclass: Add function to get renamed binaries

[Mariano Lopez]

This adds a function to get the new name for renamed binaries by the
update-alternatives class. The function uses the build metadata because
some update-alternatives binaries/scripts lack the feature to provide
this information.

This also adds the function _ua_alt_target for code reuse.
