bitbake: bitbake: ensure -f causes dependent tasks to be re-run

If -f is specified, force dependent tasks to be re-run next time. This
works by changing the force behaviour so that instead of deleting the
task's stamp, we write a "taint" file into the stamps directory, which
will alter the taskhash randomly and thus trigger the task to re-run
next time we evaluate whether or not that should be done as well as
influencing the taskhashes of any dependent tasks so that they are
similarly re-triggered. As a bonus because we write this file as
<stamp file name>.taskname.taint, the existing code which deletes the
stamp files in OE's do_clean will already handle removing it.

This means you can now do the following:

bitbake somepackage
[ change the source code in the package's WORKDIR ]
bitbake -c compile -f somepackage
bitbake somepackage

and the result will be that all of the tasks that depend on do_compile
(do_install, do_package, etc.) will be re-run in the last step.

Note that to operate in the manner described above you need full hashing
enabled (i.e. BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER must be set to a signature handler
that inherits from BasicHash). If this is not the case, -f will just
delete the stamp for the specified task as it did before.

This fix is required for [YOCTO #2615] and [YOCTO #2256].
