santiy-meta-gnome: add class for bbappend files checking
Idea taken from meta-virt Add a new class, sanity-meta-gnome.bbclass, to check for whether necessary settings are available for bbappend files in this layer to be effective, and warn users if not. In addition, a variable SKIP_SANITY_BBAPPEND_CHECK is added to enable users to explicitly skip the checking to avoid unwanted warnings. Signed-off-by: Armin Kuster <akuster808@gmail.com>

+meta-gnome
+===========
+
+The recipe in this layer needs to have 'x11' in DISTRO_FEATURES
+to have effect. To enable them, add in configuration file the following line.
+
+ DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " x11"
+
+If meta-gnome is included, but x11 is not enabled as a
+distro feature a warning is printed at parse time:
+
+ You have included the meta-gnome layer, but
+ 'x11' has not been enabled in your DISTRO_FEATURES.
+
+If you know what you are doing, this warning can be disabled by setting the following
+variable in your configuration:
+
+ SKIP_META_GNOME_SANITY_CHECK = 1
