[yocto] [meta-mono][PATCH 0/7] Updates to meta-mono layer

[Barry Grussling]

I have a need to run Mono 4.6.1 on an ARM system.  The last commit to
the yocto meta-mono tree is over six months old so I figured I would take
a crack at it myself.  Hopefully these patches help somebody else.

I would appreciate other people testing them.  I have only ran non-gui apps
on the console, which is my primary use-case.  The 4.6.1 port seems to handle
that fine, but getting wider feedback and testing would be helpful.

Over the last year Mono has migrated from GPLv2 to MIT for the license.  This
required a little restructuring.  I introduced mono-mit.inc and mono-gplv2.inc
to support this.

I also included a previously submitted patch from
http://yocto.yoctoproject.narkive.com/yo6DAY92/meta-mono-patch-mono-4-xx-remove-disable-static-from-extra-oeconf
as I needed it to get Mono compiling on my platform.

I enhanced libgdiplus to allow it to be lighter weight and not necessarily
depend on meta-openembedded/meta-oe.  It now understands PACKAGECONFIG
flags for many common libraries.

Lastly, I have been having issues with Mono 4.6.1 as described at:
https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=44918 regarding the
error I get: "No fast tls on device. Using fallbacks....".  I included
the upstream patch which attempts to fix the issue.  I am still
getting console output about TLS, but everything functions.

These commits start from commit bec66698046eb112df0be281e9d3e080e1c61cdb:

 README: add notes on testing mono 4.4.0.148

I am using meta-mono with poky krogoth.

Thanks,

   Barry
