[yocto] Yocto .sdcard file missing after build

[Giovanni Foiani]

Yocto packed for Freescale provided by
fsl-community-bsp-platform<https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-platform>
uses
an own setup-environment script, I put

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2 ext3 sdcard"
*
*
as the last configuration in this file and now it works and hob can
generate sdcard files.
