Triggers the OpenEmbedded build system's shared libraries
resolver to exclude an entire package when scanning for
shared libraries.
<note>
The shared libraries resolver's functionality results
in part from the internal function
<filename>package_do_shlibs</filename>, which is part of
the
<link linkend='ref-tasks-package'><filename>do_package</filename></link>
task.
You should be aware that the shared libraries resolver
might implicitly define some dependencies between
packages.
</note>
The <filename>EXCLUDE_FROM_SHLIBS</filename> variable is
similar to the
<link linkend='var-PRIVATE_LIBS'><filename>PRIVATE_LIBS</filename></link>
variable, which exludes a package's particular libraries
variable, which excludes a package's particular libraries
only and not the whole package.
