Often configure scripts or Makefiles that use the stub scripts written by
binconfig-disabled fail mysteriously with no obvious problem. Attempt to solve
this by writing an error to stderr which hopefully makes it to the logs.

The ">" should be ">>".
We had got something like the following in pcap-config:
echo '--should-not-have-used-/usr/bin/pcap-config'
exit 1
(Lacks of #!/bin/sh)

The purpose of binconfig-disabled is to manipulate config scripts such that
using them causes errors. But that only works when the modified config script
really gets installed in the sysroot. That is not the case with the staging
code in binconfig.bbclass.
Only patched config files get staged. For that reason it seemed more
appropriate to change binconfig-disabled instead of binconfig.
The reason for the change was the observation that the swig recipe needs
pcre-config installed on the host system. Staging pcre-config removes that
host dependency. swig did not actually end up *using* the pcre-config from the
host, because later during do_compile the patched configure.ac is used to
re-generate configure.

Returning a non-zero exit code is not enough to cause errors when configure
scripts call the patched config scripts: for example, swig's configure script
uses PCRE_LIBS=`$PCRE_CONFIG --libs` and does not abort on errors. Using empty
output may then succeed, for example when the required library is available
indirectly.
Returning some nonsense command line arguments covers such cases, because
using them will definitely lead to errors during compilation. The faked
arguments were chosen such that these errors can be linked back to the root
cause.

To avoid syntax errors when inheriting this class without setting BINCONFIG, add
a default value and a comment.

This adds a binconfig-disabled class which can be used by recipes where
a -config file is installed but we wish to disable it and just rely on
the .pc files instead.
Rather than simply deleting it, we make the script "exit 1" so that it
can be found in PATH and raise a build error rather than something
silently falling back to the build system for example.
Rather than randomly finding -config files, this adds in the
specification of a list of binconfig scripts which is more deterministic
and maintainable moving forward.
This patch converts various users in OE-Core to use this, a world build
of OE-Core tests out ok with this change. There will likely be issues in
other layers however, hence this being a RFT.
