This class lets you use BBCLASSEXTEND to add a variant of the recipe that
fetches from git instead of a tarball.

For example:

 BBCLASSEXTEND = "gitupstream"
 SRC_URI_class-gitupstream = "git://git.example.com/example"
 SRCREV_class-gitupstream = "abcd1234"

This variant will have DEFAULT_PREFERENCE set to -1 so it needs to be selected
to be used, and any git-specific tweaks can be done with the class-gitupstream
override, for example:

 DEPENDS_append_class-gitupstream = " gperf-native"

 do_configure_prepend_class-gitupstream() {
    touch ${S}/README
 }

It currently only supports creating a git variant of the target recipe, not
native or nativesdk.

This isn't quite right, if you don't want to patch bitbake then use
BBCLASSEXTEND="gitupstream:foo".

I have patches to extend this to native recipes but they're rather ugly so
are not ready yet.
