nativesdk-glibc: Split glibc and libcrypt to use libxcrypt instead
Fedora28[1] has decided to go ahead and use libxcrypt to replace libcrypt from glibc despite the change not having merged into glibc upstream yet. This breaks the use of uninative in OE on fedora28 since binaries there are now using new symbols only found in libxcrypt. libxcrypt is meant to be backwards compatible with libcrypt but not the reverse. Since this will impact OE in the next release cycle, this changes nativesdk only to use this new model and adds libxcrypt to work in that case. This allows us to build a uninative which is compatible with fedora28 and previous other OSes. In order to work, recipes will now need to depend on virtual/crypt where they use libcrypt since its now a separate library and we can't depend on it from glibc to preseve backwards compatibility since glibc needs to build first. For now, only the problematic nativesdk recipes have been fixed up. For target use, the default provider remains glibc for now. Assuming this change is merged into upstream glibc, we will need to roll this change out for the target but we will do this in the next release cycle when we can better deal with the resulting bugs.
