[yocto] Package Feature compile/runtime dependency

[Koehler, Yannick (HP Networking)]

It would definitely make sense to have a distro level feature called init-busyboxinit/init-sysvinit/init-systemd/init-upstart or something along those line.  Is this already in place?

It would then have to pull the package and their appropriate package feature set to get there.

Etc...  Disregard the syntax as it is simply an idea/example and not intended as a specification.

A lot of those features are DISTRO_FEATURES, so there should be heavier user of the distro_features_check class.  For example, there are recipes that require systemd to be used, so they set REQUIRED_DISTRO_FEATURES=systemd.
