I would actually suggest that the esdk is skipped altogether: it
provides a restricted, locked down environment without access to
bitbake or possibility to modify the build. It's not a 'real yocto'.

Rather, let's give the users the possibility to go directly to the
full yocto build that was used to produce the binary images. To that
end, I've proposed a prototype for making 'build bundles':
https://patchwork.yoctoproject.org/project/oe-core/patch/[email protected]/

It would need a corresponding user-facing piece, e.g. oe-setup that
would take and unpack and setup the bundle from the server, ensuring
it does match the binary image.
