[PATCH 1/2] insane.bbclass: Add test for static .a libraries in non-staticdev packages

[PATCH 1/2] insane.bbclass: Add test for static .a libraries in non-staticdev packages

[Saul Wold]

This check verifies that non staticdev and non pic packages do not
have static libraries in them. There are a few exceptions for the
libgcc-dev and libgcov-dev packages which are whitelisted, also the
*_nonshared.a need to be part of their respective -dev packages.

This is currently a warning to work out any other issues in the upper
layers but will be moved to ERROR at somepoint in the future.

Looks good but instead of adding STATICDEV_WHITELIST, could we set:

INSANE_SKIP_libgcc-dev = "staticdev"
INSANE_SKIP_libgcov-dev = "staticdev"

in the gcc recipe and use the existing code to handle that?

Cheers,
