I started the work on wic update with a quick bitbake update.
Later I found no technical need for the same. But the effort was already put and
it made sense to complete it. Hence this upstreaming.

CI-build: http://ci.isar-build.org:8080/job/isar_vkk_devel/70/

WIC update is in works. And I don't(yet) see it breaking with the
latest or the older version of
ISAR's bitbake. Will try to send the patches soon.

Thanks,
