[yocto-autobuilder-helper][PATCH] config.json: Enable dedicated sstate during build and remove after

[Michael Halstead]

Without any sstate available oe-selftest cannot run in parallel. Set sstate to a
location used only by these builds and remove it as the last step.

Unfortunately this won't work as BUILDDIR is a shell variable in this
case. I've tweaked the scripts/config a little differently to try and
speed up the bringup tests and fired off another couple of test builds.
