Re: [poky] [PATCH] meta-poky/conf: bblayers.conf.sample: move meta-yocto repos out of oe-core

As all blockers for this patch have been resolved, and the docs have
been updated to assume dis-integrated repos:

https://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-docs/commit/?id=0ddb5f4be84a97a66cc92c3c68c820af5223e108

this patch needs to be taken into testing and integrated into
meta-yocto, otherwise the docs are giving instructions that don't work
with current meta-yocto master.
