image_types: add IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE
[YOCTO #886] This address 2 needs after the IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE is cleaned up, by removing the _ext2/3 overrides it allows for a cleaner override using IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE to create a large rootfs, or by setting the IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE, will allow for extra space allocated in Kilobytes above the base size (determined by du of the rootfs * IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR, default of 1.3).
