[oe] [meta-openwrt] PV for git versions for 17.01.4 upstream release, git for master?

[Daniel F. Dickinson]

Hi,

Wondering thoughts on using a package version with the git revisions of 
openwrt recipes that are in current stable (17.01.4) and using _git 
version for tracking upstream master?  Also in that case would it be 
necessary to use PREFERRED_VERSION for in e.g. openwrt.bbclass, or it a 
versioned recipe preferred to a git one, unless overridden?

Openwrt doesn't cut tarball releases of the sources that I am aware of, 
and only some of the code is on github; there's a lot at git.openwrt.org.

(Oh and for those not in the loop, Openwrt and LEDE have re-merged; for 
those really not in the loop Openwrt was forked into LEDE project for
a while).
