[poky] [PATCH 0/4][Image Creator]Put extra requested fields into different cache files

[Ke, Liping]

Hi, Josh

Those patches are rebased with latest poky master today. I noticed Richard
has changed the code of cache, making sure skipped info is saved for avoiding
unnecessary parsing, so that the cache file will remain the same size each time.
( I found before this change, cache file kept increased).
I verified that our new introduced patch working with this latest cache changes.

Thanks a lot!
