Paul Spooren 15e55a2190 imagebuilder: fix local packages/ folder
This commit fixes commit "2999f810ff: build,IB: include kmods only in
local builds" which cause the local packages/ folder only to be added
for local builds but no longer for ImageBuilder created by the Buildbot.

The commits intention was to use remote kmods repositories rather than
storing them locally. Accidentally the entire handling of the local
`packages/` was removed.

Re-add the folder and include a README describing what it can be used
for.

# ./packages folder
Add `.ipk` packages to this folder will allow the ImageBuilder to install them.
For more complex setups consider adding a custom feed containing packages.
src custom file:///path/to/packages
Whenever the ImageBuilder builds a firmware image this folder will be reloaded
and a new package index created. In case signature checks are enabled the
`./packages/Packages` index will be signed with a locally generated key pair.
