The extended buildtools tarball exists to make a host with inadequate
or ancient software able to run bitbake builds: it provides a compiler,
autotools, python3, git, tar and the rest of the build essentials. The
things it ships are the build prerequisites a build host is otherwise
expected to provide.

nativesdk-parted, -dosfstools and -gptfdisk do not fit that purpose.
They are not build prerequisites; they are disk-image helper tools that
only make sense for someone assembling or inspecting a .wic image, and
they do not belong in the set of essentials this tarball guarantees.

Drop the three entries so the tarball's contents stay limited to what
its description promises.
