The kernel tree is large and doesn't need to be copied. Override

This commit also drops the copying of the /lib directory which
just contains the kernel modules. We never use those in the sysroot
so there is little point in carrying those around.

For linux-yocto this takes the do_populate_sysroot time 24s -> 14s.

Fantastic. One less thing for me to dig into later. I thought this
was already in place, so I'm pleasantly surprised that there was a
time savings to be found!
