+ In addition to removing the local build directories of a recipe,
+ this class also removes the downloaded source; it would be invoked
+ thusly:
+ <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+ INHERIT += "rm_work_and_downloads"
+ </literallayout>
+ While this sounds wasteful, where this works well is in well-connected
+ build environments with limited disk space (such as Travis CI).
