[gnome-continuous-yocto/gnomeostree-3.28-rocko: 394/8267] bitbake: Provide LAYERDIR_RE for layer.conf

[Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi src gnome org>]

    bitbake: Provide LAYERDIR_RE for layer.conf
    
    This variable is a regex-escaped version of LAYERDIR, for safer use in
    BBFILE_PATTERN, so as to avoid issues with regex special characters in the
    layer path.
