[PATCH] buildchroot: Drop build related packages

[PATCH] buildchroot: Drop build related packages

[Jan Kiszka]

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

We are no longer using buildchroot to build packages, only to run the
imager. Dropping everything apparently build-related saves both time and
space.

Suggestions welcome if we can easily drop more.

Yes, there is the conversion series for the the imager which obsoletes 
this. But my impression is that it will not be ready in the near future.
