With this its possible to create custom environment variables within the kas
configuration file, that are passed through to the build environment:
env:
VARIABLE_NAME: "default variable value"
Those variables can be overwritten by variables of the environment kas is
started in:
$ VARIABLE_NAME="overwritten variable value" kas shell ...
Those variables are also added to the 'BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE' variable list to make
them available to bitbake.
This is useful for instance storing sensitive information, that should not be
part of the configuration files or bitbake recipes.

Some bitbake recipes use FTP to fetch objects. This patch adds support
for the ftp_proxy variable to kas. Is now usable in the same manner as
the 'http_proxy' variable

Currently many of the error messages regarding the configuration file
are not really helpful.
To improve reporting this patch adds validation of the configuration
files using the jsonschema module.
Example:
Forgetting ':' at the end of a layer definition, like this:
repos:
meta-iot2000:
layers:
meta-iot2000-example
^
Exception before:
TypeError: string indices must be integers
Exception after:
Validation Error:
'meta-iot2000-example' is not of type 'object'
Failed validating 'type' in schema['properties']['repos']['additionalProperties']['properties']['layers']:
{'additionalProperties': {'oneOf': [{'type': 'null'},
{'type': 'integer'},
{'type': 'boolean'},
{'type': 'string'}]},
'type': 'object'}
On instance['repos']['meta-iot2000']['layers']:
'meta-iot2000-example'
This patch adds 'jsonschema' as an additional dependency.
