buildhistory.bbclass: support extending the content of the build history
The idea behind the implementation of Yocto #8138 was that an additional class can write additional files in the recipe directories, for example by hooking into the functions of buildhistory.bbclass or by implementing its own SSTATEPOSTINSTFUNCS function. However, when these additional files get created before buildhistory_emit_pkghistory(), they get removed again by that function because it contains code which removes everything it does not know about. The reason for that is that these unknown items are probably obsolete. This logic is the reason why the additional "kconfig" file from buildhistory-extra.bbclass never showed up in the final build history. To fix this, the hard-coded list of known files in buildhistory_emit_pkghistory() must be turned into a variable which derived classes can extend.
