The goal of sending these three patches before the whole is complete is to improve support for distros with features that rely on xattr that wish to use meta-swupd. meta-swupd creates sstate objects of update artefacts so that an OS update delta can be generated against a previous OS release without having to have the full build history in TMPDIR — this is especially useful for CI workflows. Without these changes sstate objects don't preserve xattr and thus swupd updates artefacts are incorrect/incomplete. Changes since v1: * Drop extra addition of tar to buildtools tarball, it's already included * Add two tests for oe.path.copytree(); one to ensure files with spaces and special characters are copied and one to ensure extended attributes are preserved.
