Jan Kiszka cda778acb5 libcmds: Write MACHINE and DISTRO as weak defaults
Otherwise we cannot overwrite them in mulitconfig files. It's not
expected that anything else in the layer config files sets those
variable, thus shadows our setting in local.conf.

Something changed in latest bitbake to reveal this issue. We first see
it in Isar since bitbake moved to f8126aaf7741.

This tool provides an easy mechanism to setup bitbake based
projects.

The OpenEmbedded tooling support starts at step 2 with bitbake. The
downloading of sources and then configuration has to be done by
hand. Usually, this is explained in a README. Instead kas is using a
project configuration file and does the download and configuration
phase.

Key features provided by the build tool:

- clone and checkout bitbake layers
- create default bitbake settings (machine, arch, ...)
- launch minimal build environment, reducing risk of host contamination
- initiate bitbake build process

See the `kas documentation <https://kas.readthedocs.io>`_ for further details.
