Hey, I would like to propose the appended patch for Poky's CMake toolchain to 
allow its usage inside a Yocto SDK for building libraries and applications 
using an external (meaning as in "different to the native SDK dir") install 
directory.

I hope that I use the correct mailing list and patch format. (It's my first 
patch to Yocto) Please tell me if this mail is better suited for a different 
mailing list.

Cheers,
Andreas

Subject: [PATCH] Provide additional OECORE_EXTRA_SYSROOT variable

When compiling against a Yocto generated SDK and using an install folder
outside of the SDK's folder, CMake must be configure by using the
respective CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH. This CMake cache variable is set
in the toolchain file and hence can only be configured via environment
variables; unless one wants to modify a project's CMake files.

This patch adds an additional environment variable OECORE_EXTRA_SYSROOT
to specify such an additional sysroot location that can optionally
be used when building against a Yocto SDK using this toolchain file.
