Hello folks,

I would like to propuse the backport of following changes:

    image_types.bbclass: Rebuild when WICVARS change

    The procces to do a wic image is to save a file with
    variables required by wic and then call wic using this
    file. Because this is external to bitbake if the vars
    change, the image won't be rebuild; an example of such
    is IMAGE_BOOT_FILES.

    This patch adds these variables to vardeps of do_rootfs
    when a wic image is build. This will rebuild the image
    if a variable needed by wic changes.

    [YOCTO #8693]

    image_types: improve wks path specification

    Hardcoding a full input path with zero flexibility goes against
everything the
    Yocto Project is about. Rework it to let the user specify the wks base
    filename with WKS_FILE and it'll search the layers for the wks file and use
    it.

    (cherry picked from commit 8cc7f5229f5447c2183ac319dd52c7ed737ec89b)

Those improve the 'wic' image support on Jethro and are merged into
master for a while. Could those be backported?
