    Design documnet for Recipe creation/import script

* Purpose

The feature is from Yocto 1.2 Bug 1656. A script or similar system
that would allow you to give is an upstream URL, tarball, patch set,
package (SRPM, or debian style) and generate a recipe based on those
instructions. 

Name it with bitbake-createbb, and integrate into the build system
to use the build system infrastructure that similiar with bitbake-runtask.

* Usage:
bitbake-createbb <SRC_URI> [PATCH_SRC_URI]

* Steps
1 download the source package frowm the SRC_RUI
2 get package name and version from package or tarball name. 
3 get summary and description from SRPM spec file or debian control file, or from configure files. 
4 get license and license checksum. 
5 get dependent packages
  |-- just parse spec file or debian control file
  |-- or get them by parse configure files
6 remove downloaded files
