A hardware layer provides the metadata to support specific
hardware.
By convention, hardware layers (i.e. Board Support Packages)
start with the string "meta-".
In general, layers are repositories that contain related sets
of instructions and configurations that tell the OpenEmbedded
build system what to do.
Isolating related metadata into layers facilitates modular
development.
