meta: start to ignore the largefile distro feature

The largefile distro feature has been enabled by default in oe-core
for a long time and, more recently, also in poky-tiny. Building
without the largefile distro feature receives little or no testing.
Many packages now enable LFS without exposing a configure option, so
there should be very little expectation that disabling the distro
feature will result in a distro which globally disables LFS.

Respecting the distro feature adds a maintenance over-head and may be
the source of configurations oddities (e.g. dbus-native currently
builds with LFS disabled for no clear reason - fixed by this commit).

Ignore the largefile distro feature more widely, as a first step
towards deprecating and eventually removing it.
