Use the existing oe.recipeutils.split_var_value() function to split the unexpanded value of the cleandirs varflag, in case it contains python expressions - we don't want to split the expression itself as the chunks will not expand properly individually and we can miss something that expands to the source tree (and thus it can get deleted, the avoidance of which is the whole point of this code).
