Richard Purdie 2dd1b9b305 bitbake: cooker: Explictly shut down the sync thread
Hongxu Jia reported a problem where the bb_cache files were not always being
written out correctly. This was due to the sync thread being terminated
prematurely.

Whilst the preceeding changes mean the exit handler for this thread is now
correctly called since we switch to using sys.exit() instead of os._exit(),
this write can happen after we drop the bitbake lock, leading to potential
races. Avoid that headache by adding in explicit thread join() calls before
we drop the lock (which atexit or Finalize can't do).

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
