build/data: Don't expand python functions before execution [API change]
Right now, if you have some python code like:
X = "a"
def somefunction(d):
d.setVar("X", "b")
d.setVar("Y", "${X}")
then any sane person would expect that Y = "b" at the end of the
function. This is not the case, Y = "a".
This is due to the python function being expanded before execution, the
executed code would read d.setVar("Y", "a"). This understandably
confuses people, it also makes it near impossible to write ${} in a
python function without unintended things happening.
I think there is general agreement we should fix this and standardise
on non-expansion of python functions. We already don't expand anonymous
python (mostly).
I've checked OE-Core with buildhistory before and after this change and
there were a small number of issues this exposed which I've sent
patches for.
I propose we default to not expanding python code and then deal with
any consequences from that if/as/where identified. This will improve
new user understanding and usability of the system, it also allows
several long standing weird expansion issues to be fixed.
