dpkg: Only set DEB_HOST_ARCH in target case
If we don't do this, the sstate checksums vary for dpkg-native depending
on which MACHINE is set and this is clearly incorrect. It leads
to dpkg-native rebuilding far too often.
This function never worked because the SDK_OUTPUT and SDKPATH vars are
written bash-style in a python function. The only reason it never failed
a build is because the function bails out the start because of the flag
CHECK_SDK_SYSROOTS.
And I guess nobody tested with CHECK_SDK_SYSROOTS enabled until now.
This function was broken by the multi-config changes, and isn't needed anymore
now that recipeutils.pn_to_recipe can handle provides. Without this, the
newappend sub-command fails.

- remove indiscriminate search/replace commands from do_install_ptest
- copy entire build directory into PTEST_PATH and then remove unneeded files
- use lttng binaries installed on the system for the tests
- add lttng-tools-ptest runtime dependencies
- lttng-tools itself
- babeltrace, used by the test harness to process traces
- perl modules required by babelstats.pl test script
- procps (for pgrep, pidof)
- gawk
- remove unnecessary chmod and munging of utils.sh script library
- remove checkpatch from ptest installation tree
- avoid path-munging of libtool artifacts altogether
- use more efficient find+sed patterns to munge Makefiles
- reduce test harness output to conform to ptest rules

SDK: Allow changing SDKMACHINE without wiping TMP folder
When changing SDKMACHINE, we may encounter an error forcing us to wipe the TMP folder.
Since only SDK_ARCH is captured in the PN of the crosssdk recipes, changes to SDK_OS
result in conflicts. Eventually we hit the error:
ERROR: ...: The recipe <...> is trying to install files into a shared area when those files already exist.

of SDK_ARCH.
By default, libsolv uses the rpm logic for version comparison, which is

archive.bbclass: fix do_ar_original archiving of multiple source repos
When a recipe uses more than one source which isn't a plain file (for
example, multiple git repos), then do_ar_original created the source
archives using the same filename and thus only archived one source.
The "name" parameter is used as file suffix to create unique names for
each source, leading to archives following this pattern:
deploy/${TARGET_SYS}/${PF}/${PF}[-<name>].tar.gz.
The ${PF} part is a bit redundant, which may or may not be
desirable. The patch is more localized this way (no need to modify
create_tarball()).

archiver.bbclass: ignore unpack sub-directories in do_ar_original
Support for absolute paths in the "subdir" parameter was recently
added (bitbake rev: c3873346c6fa). The git fetcher has supported
absolute paths in "destsuffix" already before.
When the path is absolute as in destsuffix=${S}/foobar, the tmpdir
used by do_ar_original gets ignored, which breaks:
- source code archiving (tmpdir is empty)
- compilation due to race conditions (for example, ${S} getting
modified by do_ar_original while do_compile runs)
To solve this, these parameters get removed from URLs before
instantiating the fetcher for them.
This is done unconditionally also for relative paths, because these
paths are not useful when archiving the original source (upstream
source does not have them, they only get used by the recipe during
compilation).

* If there's no explicit Subject: but the first line is followed by a
blank line, isn't an Upstream-Status: or Index: marker and isn't too
long, then assume it's good enough to be the shortlog. This avoids
having too many patches with "Upgrade to version x.y" as the shortlog
(since that is often when patches get added).
