Specifies a list of options that, if reported by the
configure script as being invalid, should not generate a
warning during the
<link linkend='ref-tasks-configure'><filename>do_configure</filename></link>
task.
Normally, invalid configure options are simply not passed
to the configure script (e.g. should be removed from
<link linkend='var-EXTRA_OECONF'><filename>EXTRA_OECONF</filename></link>).
However, common options, for example, exist that are passed
to all configure scripts at a class level that might not
be valid for some configure scripts.
It follows that no benefit exists in seeing a warning about
these options.
For these cases, the options are added to
<filename>UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST</filename>.
