These are recipes where the upstream has moved to GPLv3 and these old
versions are the last ones under the GPLv2 license.
There are several reasons for making this move. There is a different
quality of service with these recipes in that they don't get security
fixes and upstream no longer care about them, in fact they're actively
hostile against people using old versions. The recipes tend to need a
different kind of maintenance to work with changes in the wider ecosystem
and there needs to be isolation between changes made in the v3 versions
and those in the v2 versions.
There are probably better ways to handle a "non-GPLv3" system but right
now having these in OE-Core makes them look like a first class citizen
when I believe they have potential for a variety of undesireable issues.
Moving them into a separate layer makes their different needs clearer, it
also makes it clear how many of these there are. Some are probably not
needed (e.g. mc), I also wonder whether some are useful (e.g. gmp)
since most things that use them are GPLv3 only already. Someone could
now more clearly see how to streamline the list of recipes here.
I'm proposing we mmove to this separate layer for 2.3 with its future
maintinership and testing to be determined in 2.4 and beyond.

Inherit upstream-version-is-even as minor-odd releases (such as 4.5.x) are
development snapshots.
Change the SRC_URI back to using GNU_MIRROR now we're not using a development
release but a stable tarball.

The findutils_4.2.31.bb can't use the SRC_URI in findutils.inc (but
findutils_4.5.14.bb can use it), use the right SRC_URI to fix it.

The class itself currently does nothing. The idea is to mark all recipes that
make use of the texinfo utilities. In the future, this class could be used to
suppress the generation/formatting of documentation for performance,
explicitly track dependencies on these utilities, and eliminate Yocto's
current dependency on the host system's texinfo utilities.

The base_contains is kept as a compatibility method and we ought to
not use it in OE-Core so we can remove it from base metadata in
future.

We need to be able to generate a standalone tarball containing tar/git so
add nativesdk versions of the appropriate recipes to allow this to be possible.
Tweak the git perl paths to avoid warnings when building the nativesdk version,
ensure the binaries are wrapped correctly and avoid update-alternatives in
nativesdk-tar.

[YOCTO #2826]
m4/nullsort.m4 tries to find sort dir, and write it to updatedb,
but nullsort.m4 is checking the host dir. Once the sort dirs on
target and host are different, updatedb will fail due to wrong
sort dir.
Since we always have sort under ${bindir}, so we can assign it
directly.

Work around gnulib time_t assumption in findutils for x32
time_t is 64bit and long int is 32bit on x32. But gnulib used in
findutils assumes time_t values fit into long int. Such assumption is
invalid for x32 and should be removed.
This patch is a workaround to compile gnulib for x32.
