oelint: Suppress bbclassextend layer-wide

meta-freescale is a BSP layer whose recipes overwhelmingly package
machine-specific firmware and prebuilt binaries. These are not
cross-compilable libraries, so BBCLASSEXTEND (native/nativesdk) does
not apply to them, yet oelint.var.bbclassextend fires on all 168 of
them.

Suppress the rule layer-wide in .oelint.cfg instead of annotating each
recipe with an inline exception. The header comment is updated to note
that only rules which provably never apply to the whole layer belong
here; per-recipe exceptions still go inline as '# nooelint:'.
