bitbake: runqueue: enable setVariable command to affect task execution

Allow the client to set variables with the setVariable command and have
those changes take effect when running tasks. This is accomplished by
collecting changes made by setVariable separately and pass these to the
worker so it can be applied on top of the datastore it creates.
