This script appears broken and is actively breaking build directories.
For example, binutils-cross-i586 gets run do_fetch to do_populate_sysroot by:
$ oe-selftest -r devtool.DevtoolTests.test_devtool_virtual_kernel_modify
then:
$ oe-selftest -r oescripts.BuildhistoryDiffTests.test_buildhistory_diff
wipes out the contents of tmp/work/x86_64-linux/binutils-cross-i586/2.28-r0/
but does not wipe out the corresponding stamps, then:
$ oe-selftest -r runtime-test.Postinst.test_postinst_rootfs_and_boot
needs binutils-cross-i586:do_populate_lic and if and only if this is
unavailable from sstate, it fails since it thinks the source is already
unpacked when it isn't resulting in:

and similar errors.
Its safer for users to wipe tmp than try and maintain scripts which try
to remove pieces of tmp and get it wrong so remove the script.
