Richard Purdie cbb4636125 bitbake: knotty/uihelper: Switch from pids to tids for Task event management
We've seen cases where a task can execute with a given pid, complete
and a new task can start using the same pid before the UI handler has
had time to adapt.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemux86-alt/build/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/knotty.py", line 484, in main
    helper.eventHandler(event)
  File "/home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemux86-alt/build/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/uihelper.py", line 30, in eventHandler
    del self.running_tasks[event.pid]
KeyError: 13490

This means using pids to match up events on the UI side is a bad
idea. Change the code to use task ids instead. There is a small
amount of fuzzy matching for the progress information since there
is no task information there and we don't want the overhead of a task
ID in every event, however since pid reuse is unlikely, we can live
with a progress bar not quite working properly in a corner case like
this.

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.
