Add support for VirtualBox guest additions.
The additions are built inside the Build Appliance VM.
For this to be possible, the environment for out-of-tree kernel module builds
must be present and set up properly.
A README file with detailed steps on how to build the guest additions is placed
in the home directory of the user "builder" as well.
The main purpose of the guest additions is to allow sharing folders between
the host and Build Appliance VM.

Build Appliance VMware configuration has
been modernized:
- Default disk is a SATA one;
- CDROM and Floppy drives removed, no real use;
- 3D acceleration not really present, removed;
This solves a warning that VMware
Player/Workstation was displaying at boot.
- IDE disk removed.
- guestOS has been set to a 64bits Linux.
Fixes [YOCTO #6680].

For network/internet connectivity, Build Appliance uses
a NAT virtual network adapter. While using NAT, inside
Build Appliance network proxies won't provide a network
connection to the outside world.
Basically, connectivity is not provided if network proxies
are needed in order to acces the internet.
The solution is to use bridged ethernet connection type.
Fixes [YOCTO #3998].
