README: Clarify where to send patches
There is still a great deal of confusion over where patches for the
various components of the poky repository should be sent. Attempt to
mitigate this by including a blurb in the poky README similar to what
other layers and repositories do.
V2: Call out the special care required when dealing with the scripts
directory per Saul Wold's recommendation.
V3: Recommend applying patches to oe-core prior to sending patches to
the oe-core mailing list.
