kernel: allow configuration to be skipped .. but warn

Browse Source 
Allow the kernel include file to be skipped, even if a
kernel is capable of merging and using the fragments in
the layer and kernel-cache.

Setting SKIP_META_VIRT_KERNEL_INCLUDE="t" in a kernel
bbappend, or in a configuration file will inhibit the
generated / detected include file.

BUT

If that opt-out is done, we warn, as the user has
explicitly disabled safeguards that help ensure that
subtle runtime issues aren't introduced.

BUT

If someone really knows what they are doing, they
don't want the warning to be present in each build.
So setting META_VIRT_KERNEL_CHECK_WARNING_INHIBIT="t"
will inhibit the message.

At that point, you have jumped through all the hoops
and you are free to ensure your kernel configuration
is correct using other means.

# We warn if:

# is set, we won't do the warning.
