[yocto] libssp_nonshared.a not present in native SDK.

[Paul Eggleton]

Hi Rafael,

Looking at this a bit more closely I think the problem here is that within the 
SDK this RRECOMMENDS doesn't actually come into effect. In the SDK, gcc is in 
the host part, but you want the libssp library for the target which is in the 
target part of the SDK; RRECOMMENDS can't cross between those. On the target 
device it's simpler - both packages are in the same "namespace".

The only way I can see to fix this is to add libssp and libssp-dev to 
packagegroup-core-standalone-sdk-target so that it's explicitly brought into 
the SDK. I'll send a patch to do that.

Cheers,
Paul
