[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] devtool: warn user about multiple layer having the same base name

I had not realized the layer name in the devtool finish command supports abbreviations/patterns (whichever it is). My expectation from running `devtool finish foo meta` would be to update the foo recipe in the meta layer,  not that it should go looking for every layer called meta-something.

How useful is that support compared to be able to specify the exact layer name? Normally in this situation, I would typically expect to use an extra option,  e.g., --abbrev or --regexp, to enable support for using loose matching.
