[Toaster] Adding custom toasterconf.json file for Mentor

[Ed Bartosh]

Hi Sujith,

It looks like your repository doesn't have 'origin' remote, which
failing code is trying to find in 'git remote -v' output.

For your repository git remote -v prints the following 2 lines:
mel    ssh://git@github.com/MentorEmbedded/meta-mentor.git (fetch)
mel    ssh://git@github.com/MentorEmbedded/meta-mentor.git (push)

so, your remote name is 'mel'. My guess is that 'origin' is taken from
your toasterconfig.json. Unfortunately I can't
reproduce this on my machine as I don't have your layers.

I'd suggest to replace 'origin' with 'mel' in your config and try again.

Regards,
Ed
