[oe] [meta-oe][PATCH 0/3] Add bits to save/restore URI headrevs

[Christopher Larson]

From: Christopher Larson <chris_larson at mentor.com>

This is useful to support BB_NO_NETWORK with AUTOREV, by letting someone ship
dumped headrevs to the user, who then inherit this class, which ensures that
the cached headrevs are used, and upstream is not contacted at parse time.
BB_SRCREV_POLICY will be set to "cache" as well, if it's not already set, as
otherwise bitbake will contact upstream to update the cached values.

This is helpful when shipping downloads to someone when there's a desire to
support both BB_NO_NETWORK and AUTOREV.

The restore_headrevs.bbclass will restore dumped headrevs at config parse time
(add to INHERIT), and the oe.headrevs python module provides a function one
can call to dump the headrevs.

The following changes since commit 62bfd1f93f8873611e818c7cc8c13a761d629502:
