Fix a problem with `devtool modify` as suggested by Marcus Flyckt on
the mailing list:
```
I encountered an issue with `do_config` when using `devtool modify`
on `u-boot-imx`.
```
[...]
| cp: cannot stat '[...]/u-boot-imx/2024.04/build/imx8mp_wl400s_defconfig/.config': No such file or directory
| WARNING: exit code 1 from a shell command.
ERROR: Task ([...]/sources/poky/../meta-freescale/recipes-bsp/u-boot/u-boot-imx_2024.04.bb:do_configure) failed with exit code '1'

Summary: There was 1 ERROR message, returning a non-zero exit code
```
The issue seems to originate from the following lines in
`workspace/appends/u-boot-imx_2024.04.bbappend`:
```
do_configure:append() {
if [ ${@oe.types.boolean(d.getVar("KCONFIG_CONFIG_ENABLE_MENUCONFIG"))} = True ]; then
cp ${KCONFIG_CONFIG_ROOTDIR}/.config ${S}/.config.baseline
ln -sfT ${KCONFIG_CONFIG_ROOTDIR}/.config ${S}/.config.new
fi
}
```
For some reason `KCONFIG_CONFIG_ROOTDIR` does not point to the
correct directory. It gets its value in `uboot-config.bbclass`:
```
if len(ubootconfig) == 1:
d.setVar('KCONFIG_CONFIG_ROOTDIR', os.path.join(d.getVar("B"), d.getVar("UBOOT_MACHINE").strip()))
```
So the main issue is that B gets expanded in this expression, and
then later B gets changed by `externalsrc.bbclass`.
`d.getVar("B", False)` does not solve the issue, however the
proposed change does.
