Enguerrand de Ribaucourt 0a0caacfa5 recipetool: create_npm: reuse license utils
create_npm.py duplicated the logic for matching licenses from files and
also finding them. This patch refactors the code to reuse the license
utils. This will make the code more maintainable and also align both
behaviors. For instance, some licenses weren't matched properly because
the duplicate logic did not support the difference in format in the md5
tables for COMMON_LICENSE_DIR and licenses.csv.

This is also faster since the license files were being read twice.
The result is slightly more accurate since the utils have better
implementations, and I was able to reuse the logic for the root PN
package, as well as the base LICENSE variable.

I chose to extract generate_common_licenses_chksums into create.py
since it can be considered a general utility function to allow
other recipetool creators to refer to COMMON_LICENSE_DIR files.

I updated the wording in the code when appropriate.

v3:
 - added commit
 - this replaces the commit that added all the COMMON_LICENSE_DIR md5
   to licenses.csv

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/

OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.

Contribution Guidelines

Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.

Where to Send Patches

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:

OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):

BitBake (files in bitbake/):

Documentation (files in documentation/):

meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):

If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
