[yocto] Labeling Release

I need to label a release of my image, including all of the Open Source components and the ones I've added in a way that I can both reproduce the exact build at any point in the future, and I can give something relitively compact to our general configuration manager (who is not used to doing CM on

[yocto] Multiple Projects from the same build directory

I'll admit I'm being a bit lazy. I have two related projects, will call them A and B. B is dependent on A's layers and adds its own. So far, there have been no issues with just building them in the same directory since they have separate image recepies. However, I'm shortly going to be needing to
