That is to support alternative providers of libc, such as glibc, uclibc
or even an external binary toolchain.
No PR bump is necessary here.

Fixes [YOCTO #2114]
The rt-tests recipe was issuing the following WARNINGs:
WARNING: For recipe rt-tests, the following files/directories were installed
but not shipped in any package:
WARNING: /usr/src
WARNING: /usr/src/backfire
WARNING: /usr/src/backfire/backfire.c
WARNING: /usr/src/backfire/Makefile
Add ${prefix}/src/backfire to FILES_${PN} to include these files in the package.
These depend on the target kernel and are meant to be able to be rebuilt as
needed. Ideally we would also build this module and include it with rt-tests or
the linux-yocto-rt kernel. For now, conform with the intent of the rt-tests
Makefile and avoid the WARNINGs.

Using a tag, like v0.73, forces network access to resolve a
commit ID. Use the corresponding commit ID in the recipe.

Keeping the rt recipes in their own layer has led to maintenance issues,
particularly with the linux-yocto-rt recipes. As these kernel types are part of
the same linux-yocto source repository, it seems reasonable to include the rt
kernel recipes alongside the standard recipes. A new recipes-rt directory for
the other recipes provides adequate separation and eliminates the need for a
separate layer.
As there is no meta-rt/conf/layer.conf to force the kernel, users must now
specify the rt kernel in their local.conf or in the machine.conf:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto-rt"
The merging of the rt recipes into the core also eliminates complications with
multiple layer dependencies for new BSP layers. Having to either separate RT
BSPs from standard BSPs or force users to add meta-rt to bblayers even when not
building an RT BSP (because the RT BSPs in the same layer would fail to parse
without it) was sub-optimal at best.
