Paul Eggleton 72ce5c4cde conf/bitbake.conf: add DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL
When introducing new items to DISTRO_FEATURES that control functionality
that is already enabled, in order to leave existing distro configuration
unchanged we need a way to "backfill" these new feature items onto the
existing DISTRO_FEATURES value.

This introduces a DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL variable whose items will be
added to the end of DISTRO_FEATURES, unless they also appear in
DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED which distros can use in their
configuration to prevent specific items from being added.

Fixes [YOCTO #1946].

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
