[Toaster] [review-request] 7414-cut the prefix from layer file paths for bitbake variables

[Barros Pena, Belen]

Hi Dave,

This is looking good. But I've realised I forgot about something. Not all
files setting variables are inside a layer: some of them are configuration
files inside the /build or /bitbake directories.

I guess we should also cut those, showing only the path inside the root
source directory. So something like

/home/user/poky/build/conf/local.conf

Would show as

build/conf/local.conf

I am not fully sure if this is the right thing to do, so I'd be interested
in hearing what you and the others think.

I also realise this was not explicitly explained in the original bug. If
you want me to open a separate issue in Bugzilla, I can do so: just let me
know.

Thanks!

Belén
