classes/package*: Add support for PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPS
Add a new variable to allow markup of postinstall (and preinst) script dependnecies on native/cross tools. If your postinstall can execute at rootfs creation time rather than on target but depends on a native tool in order to execute, you need to list that tool in PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPENDS.
