* new KERNEL_MODULE_AUTOLOAD syntax doesn't support modules where basename and
module name don't match (usually - and _), e.g.:
module_autoload_bq27x00_battery = "bq27x00-battery"
* sometimes it's useful to load modules in particular order and
module_autoload allowed to just list multiple modules, e.g.:
module_autoload_snd-soc-neo1973-wm8753 = "snd-soc-s3c24xx snd_soc_s3c24xx_i2s snd-soc-dfbmcs320 snd-soc-wm8753 snd-soc-neo1973-wm8753"
or
module_autoload_g_ether = "s3c2410_udc g_ether"
restore this possibility which is useful for incorrect dependencies
between modules

The current module_autoload_* and module_conf_* variables are error
both ugly and error prone. They aren't registered in the task checksums
so changes to them aren't reflected in the build. This turns out to
be near impossible to fix with the current variable format in any
sensible way :(.
This patch replace module_autoload with the list of variables in
KERNEL_MODULE_AUTOLOAD which is a much simpler and usable API. An
error is printed if an old style variable is encountered. It should
be simple to convert to this.
module_conf_* are harder to deal with since there is data associated
with it, it isn't simply a flag. We need a list of variables that are set
in order to be able to correctly handle the task checksum so we add
KERNEL_MODULE_PROBECONF for this purpose and error if the user hasn't
added a module to it when they should have.

During rootfs construction, image.bbclass will call depmod after all the
modules are installed. There's no need to run it from the postinst when
operating in offline root mode.

The has_key() attribute has been removed in python 3 since there is better
syntax available. Use the improved syntax.

* this way we can reuse the same functionality also for external modules
including module_autoload_foo and module_conf_foo functionality
* MODULE_PACKAGES variable was removed (splited modules are now returned
by do_split_packages
* KERNEL_MODULES_META_PACKAGE is used to append all splitted packages
to RDEPENDS. In kernel.bbclass it's old "kernel-modules" in
module.bbclass it defaults to ${PN} for upgrade path from
single PN with all modules to PN depending on all new kernel-module-*
