The systems provided by the Yocto Project Fish River Island 2 Giveaway
Program come with Fast Boot EFI firmware. This firmware does not
provide legacy BIOS support. And because the 'vesafb' X driver
depends on this legacy BIOS support, it fails to work on these
systems.
On these systems the 'fbdev' X driver is able to work, giving a
functional X graphical screen. Somehow the 'fbdev' X driver is finding
800x600 as the only available mode for display on these systems.
This 'fbdev' X driver should also work with the other fri2 systems
which come with the Kontron supplied APTIO (AMI) BIOS.
This fixes bug:

This replaces the old VA_FEATURES method to specify the codecs.
These VA codecs are included in the image when image has 'hwcodec'
in the IMAGE_FEATURES.
And one can disable the VA features by redefining the IMAGE_FEATURES
var in the local.conf .
The gst-va-intel package pulls in emgd driver and x11 pieces, hence
it is moved to the XSERVERCODECS var.

We want to use emgd-1.14 & emgd-1.16 recipe interchangeably.
As the some of the generated package names include versions
which will be different in the emgd-1.16 recipe, this
version part is stripped from the package names so that it
will match with the emgd-1.16 recipe package names.
All the BSP configuration which were using these package names
also change accordingly to avoid any build issues.
Also with the 2 versions of emgd recipes make sure that BSPs
don't start using the emgd-1.16 version until they have been
validated to work by specifying the preferred emgd recipe
version for the relevant BSPs.

dependencies on libva and libx11:
emgd-driver-video
emgd-gst-plugins-va-0.10.10
emgd-gst-plugins-mixvideo-0.10.34
Include these in the VA_FEATURES variable only when the EMGD XSERVER

For images such as core-image-lsb which do not include X components,
including any of these emgd subpackages will pull in unwanted X

To ease development on unreleased BSPs, let the kernel SRCREV float.
This avoids constantly having to update the SRCREVs manually, and
assures we won't get into a situation where LINUX_VERSION doesn't
match the version set by the kernel recipe.
We'll lock down the kernel SRCREVs and set the matching LINUX_VERSION
when we do releases, but in the meantime, we can use AUTOREV.
Note that individual BSPs are always free to override this maintain
their own SRCREVs if they want to.
