Add a fairly simple class to tar up the work directory on task failure
to a configurable location - useful when the build environment is
ephemeral (e.g. an autobuilder/build pipeline). The directories that
are retained can be configured, and you can also choose to save
directories on every build as well if desired.

[This is a significant reworking of a prototype I sent as an RFC back
in 2020 (AKA "workdir_save"). Changes since then include deferring
tarball creation until the end, more config flexibility, and the
addition of test cases.]


The following changes since commit 662396533177b72cc1d83e95841b27f7e42dcb20:

  create-spdx-3.0/populate_sdk_base: Add SDK_CLASSES inherit mechanism to fix tarball SPDX manifests (2024-07-26 12:26:24 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:

(should have been openembedded-core-contrib I know, but for some reason
I wasn't able to push there.)
