Issue description:

The issue is that the developer who demand only the "new" software
they write is allowed to be compiled from source, they only want to
reuse binaries from an existed sstate-cache, if the developer makes
a change that triggers a rebuild, it should be an instant error. 

The purpose of this is for the sstate-cache to check if the item
exists or not. If it doesn't the item needs to be in a whitelist
or we need to fail.

I dig into three approaches to implement, and send them to oe-core
list to see if the community has a preference as to the approach,
and any additional comments.

In these approaches, I'm not sure we should protect the 'clean' or
not. Since it's ok to clean the sstate-cache, as long as a mirror
fetch will pull it back down. Any suggestion is welcomed.

If you have any better ideas, please don't hesitate to share with us.

Test steps:

1) For approach 1
   INHERIT += 'sstate_readonly'

   For approach 2
   INHERIT += 'sstate_readonly_2'

2) Create a sstate cache for testing
$ bitbake db

3) Add gzip to SSTATECACHE_WHITELIST, it enabled read-only sstate-cache,
vim local.conf
...
SSTATECACHE_WHITELIST = 'gzip'
...

4) Remove tmp dir and build db from sstate-cache succeed
$ mv tmp tmp-back && bitbake db

5) tweak db's do_configure task by adding comments

 }

6) build db and there is a build failure
$ bitbake db

7) clean db and there is a clean failure
bitbake db -ccleansstate

8) Append the missing recipe's PN to SSTATECACHE_WHITELIST
vim local.conf

SSTATECACHE_WHITELIST = 'gzip db rpm-native gcc-runtime eglibc linux-libc-headers libgcc'

9) Build db and clean db succeed
