[PATCH v3] layer.conf: fix sanity error for PATH variable in extensible SDK workflow

[Sourabh Banerjee]

Sanity checker reports following error for the PATH variable,
when bitbake -e <recipe> command is run in an extensible SDK workspace.
   PATH contains '.', './' or '' (empty element), which will break the build

In case of extensible SDK, PATH variable is formed with two consecutive ':'
as bb.utils.which(d.getVar('PATH'),'bitbake') call returns an empty string.

This change adds ':' if BITBAKEPATH is a non empty string.
