kernel: provide virtual/kernel for all kernels

Since we allow the kernel package name to be varied, we should
allow those packages to provide virtua/kernel, which allows them
to be used as primary kernels.

This change drops the use of regex, since any regex would enforce
naming (and limit what can be a provider) and add complexity./

There are currently no recipes that I found, that inherit kernel
that are not kernel recipes (kernel-base, etc, provide other
facilities), so making this provides simpler shouldn't cause
problems.

Multiple kernel providers can be dealt with in the same way as
any multiple provider.
