This uses the kconfiglib python module to implement simple interactive
configuration for complex layers with many kas options and even variable
input. See the menu.py documentation header for details on the Kconfig
format and its translation to kas.
Rather than using the limited menuconfig implementation of kconfiglib,
this comes with an own, python-newt based version. The permits smooth
integration in the workflow, e.g. to offer an option that directly
triggers a build after completing a configuration. And it comes with a
nicer layout.
Unfortunately, python-newt can't be fulfilled via pip. But it is
available as proper package via common distros. So warn if the package
is missing.

This allows to pre-select the build system, specifically avoiding
confusion when kas-container is accidentally not called with --isar for
an isar config. For that, build_system needs to be defined in the
lop-level config file passed to kas-container.
Theoretically, this also allows to combine layers which have both
oe-init-build-env and isar-init-build-env scripts.

With this commit its now possible to patch 3rd party repos before bitbake is started.
Example:
This is our repo:
.
├── kas.yml
├── first-patch.patch
└── quilt-patches
├── second-patch.patch
├── third-patch.patch
└── series
Content of kas.yml:
header:
version: 8
repos:
my:
third-party:
url: "git://example.com/third-party.git"
refspec: "35adf4...34"
patches:
01-first:
repo: my
path: "first-patch.patch"
02-second:
repo: my
path: "quilt-patches"
Currently only 'git' repositories can be patched.

This will be used to carry the type of repo we are talking about. At the
moment it defaults to "git".

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.

This patch adds multiconfig support to kas by defining the
"BBMULTICONFIG" variable in the "local.conf" file.

This patch updated the 'docs/format-changelog.rst' file to include
information about the configuration file version 3 and 4.

Use a separately incremented integer to track the configuration file
format version. We start with 2 due to the change that 23c3a951f6
introduced. 1 is declared to be equivalent to the original '0.10'.
The separate versioning has the advantage of being able to increment it
already during the development cycle, and using it with config files
that test/exploit the new format.
Using an integer has the advantages of a) differentiating it clearly
from the now independent kas version and b) simplifying the version
parsing. We can now also remove the string type restriction.
