[yocto] [yocto-autobuilder][PATCH 0/3] Enabling of the new testimage class for sanity tests

[Flanagan, Elizabeth]

So, after the oe-core failure last night that was due to how we
determine when to use the new testimage, this has kind of bumped up
the need for the autobuilder to start using LAYERVERSION_* as a means
of determinating major functionality changes.

In this example, we've essentially broken backwards compatibility for
oe-core builds on the autobuilder. I put in a quick and dirty patch
last night just to get it so oe-core sanity will run using the old
sanity testing framework. I'm working on getting a GetLayerVersion
buildstep working so we can utilize it both for the new test framework
as well as to differentiate the toolchain image builds (prior to 2 we
build meta-toolchain-gmae, post core-image-sato-sdk).

I should have this implemented today. I'll need some time tonight to
get it on the AB and give it a bit more of a shakedown.
