The largefile distro feature has been enabled by default in oe-core
for a long time and, more recently, also in poky-tiny. Building
without the largefile distro feature receives little or no testing.
Many packages now enable LFS without exposing a configure option, so
there should be very little expectation that disabling the distro
feature will result in a distro which globally disables LFS.
Respecting the distro feature adds a maintenance over-head and may be
the source of configurations oddities (e.g. dbus-native currently
builds with LFS disabled for no clear reason - fixed by this commit).
Ignore the largefile distro feature more widely, as a first step
towards deprecating and eventually removing it.

These set of patches backported from upstream, which fixes the issues in
extracting hardlinks over softlinks while etracting packages by opkg.

When DEPENDS=bzip2 becomes bzip2-native in libarchive-native,
the dependency ends up getting ignored because bzip2-native
is in ASSUME_PROVIDED.
But we need the library and thus have to depend on
bzip2-replacement-native, otherwise the build proceeds
without it despite the explicit --with-bz2lib.

'tar' utility from tar and bsdtar has the same alternative priority.
'cpio' utility from cpio and bsdcpio has the same alternative priority.
Lower the ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY to avoid conflict.

Required for meta-swupd performance enhancements: in meta-swupd, the
so called "mega" image contains a rootfs with all files that can
potentially be installed on a device. Other virtual image recipes need
a subset of those files or directories, and a partial extraction from
a single tar archive is faster than letting all virtual image recipes
share access to a directory under a single pseudo instance.
It may be necessary to extract a directory with all of its attributes
without the content of the directory, hence this patch. Upstream
agreed to consider merging such a patch (see
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/libarchive-discuss/JO3hqSaAVfs)
but has been slow in actually commenting on it, so for now it has
to be carried as distro patch.
