By default bitbake will throw an error if there exists a *.bbappend
recipe for which there is no corresponding *.bb recipe.

Setting BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY will change this to a warning instead.

It's usually a sign the base recipe's version has been bumped and you
now need to update your bbappend to match or the base recipe has been
removed.
