rm_work.bbclass never deletes downloaded files, even if they are not
going to be needed again during the
build. rm_work_and_downloads.bbclass is more aggressive in minimizing
the used disk space during a build, but has other disadvantages:
- sources required by different recipes need to be fetched once per
recipe, not once per build
- incremental builds do not work reliably because sources get
removed without ensuring that sources gets fetched again
That makes rm_work_and_downloads.bbclass useful for one-time builds in
a constrained environment (like a CI system), but not for general use.
