data_smart: Ensure hash reflects vardepvalue flags correctly
The get_hash() function is used to decide if the base configuration has changed and hence whether a reparse is required. The vardepvalue flag's value was not expanded but it is often used in contexts like: METADATA_REVISION = "${@base_detect_revision(d)}" METADATA_REVISION[vardepvalue] = "${METADATA_REVISION}" which in it's unexpanded form means reparsing doesn't happen when it should as the data appears unchanged. Update get_hash to expand the values of vardepvalue so reparsing works as expected. This avoids basehash mismatch errors such as the one recently caused by using METADATA_REVISION in poky.conf's DISTRO_VERSION variable. The issue there could be exposed by a recipe using DISTRO_VERSION with the sequence: bitbake os-release <change the revision of the metadata with a dummy commit> bitbake os-release -C install which was caused because METADATA_REVISION changed but the metadata didn't reparse.
