Some locales are not listed in glibc locales support list, but can be generated,
here using ja_JP.SHIFT_JIS as an example. We can add following line into local.conf
to enable and generate it:
GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES += "en_GB.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 ja_JP.UTF-8 ja_JP.SHIFT_JIS"
IMAGE_LINGUAS += "ja-jp en-us ja-jp.shift-jis"
The localedef tool would report a warning and exit with 1, that cause build failure,
error message as below:
[warning] character map `SHIFT_JIS' is not ASCII compatible, locale not ISO C compliant [--no-warnings=ascii]
So add a --no-warnings=ascii in libc-package.bbclass to fix build failure if someone needs those locale
in yocto.

If on target locale generation is used, it fails at first boot showing
errors about a missing directory. Ensure the directory exists.

Move classes to classes-global or classes-recipe as appropriate to take
advantage of new bitbake functionality to check class scope/usage.
