This allows the configuration of the git option 'credential.usehttppath' if

This patch reworks the logic when setting KAS_REPO_REF_DIR.
When this variable is set, a two-staged clone is used:
First, a bare-clone (or similar) is created in the ref-dir, according to
the naming scheme. This clone is executed in a way that is both
reentrant as well as race-free across multiple instances of KAS working
on the same dir. Internally we clone into a tmpdir below the refdir and
rename on success to guarantee the atomicity of the operation on POSIX
compliant filesystems.
Second, the clone in the KAS_WORK_DIR is executed against the local
copy. After that, the origin url is redirected to the upstream url.
By that, the KAS_REPO_REF_DIR directory can be cached across builds
which significantly speedsup clone times against large repos.
In case the requested refspec is already in the cache (very likely in CI
builds), no direct access to the upstream repo is required. This logic
is crucial for CI systems in China, where e.g. access to github is
blocked from time to time.
The clone-from-local logic is currently only implemented for the git plugin
as HG misses the caching logic. Repo implementations that do not support this
logic can simply opt-out for the first stage by returning 'true'.
The existing user-facing logic of KAS_REPO_REF_DIR is not affected.
However, internally we no longer clone via --reference as this still
requires access to the remote repo, even if the requested commit is
already in the local copy.

This patch forwards the DISTRO_APT_PREMIRRORS environment variable into
the container when using the kas-container script. This variable is
commonly used to externally set mirrors for debian apt, e.g. in a CI
environment.

This patch forwards environment variables to control the concurrency and
parallelism of the build to bitbake.
With that, the user can reduce the concurrency in case of running short
on memory. Further, by reducing the concurrency on very large and NUMA
machines, the build sometimes can be significantly speed up.

Tools like wget and git can read credentials from $HOME/.netrc for
servers that require authentication. Allow users to pass in a .netrc
file into the kas home dir to support i.e. bitbake https fetching with
auth.

Gitlab CI predefine many variables in its environment, among them the
sever hostname and a token that can be used to authenticate with the
server. If we find these variables in the environment add the
credentials to .netrc which in turn allow git and other tools to
access resources found on the CI server.

Since 7b18e5ec3b, which was released with 0.19.0, proxy_config has no
effect anymore. No one seems to have missed it, likely because setting
the proxies via the config file was a mistake anyway. The environment
variables are the proper way.
Declare these config entries officially obsolete and warn if they still
hang around in some legacy config. We will drop them from the schema in
one of the next releases.

Additionally to the variable SSH_PRIVATE_KEY, which can be used to
reference a private key saved as a string within a variable (the previous
documentation falsely stated, that it references a path and has been
adjusted), the new variable SSH_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE can now be used to reference
the path to a file containing the private key.
