oe/copy_buildsystem.py: dereference symlink

When there is a relative symlink in the layer, for example:
symA -> ../out/of/layer/file

symA will be invalid fater copied, it would be invalid from build time
if it points to a relative path, and would be invalid after extracted
the sdk if it points to a absolute py. Dereference symlink when copy
will fix the problem.

Use tar rather than shutil.copytree() to copy is because:
1) shutil.copytree(symlinks=Fasle) has bugs when dereference symlinks:
   https://bugs.python.org/issue21697
   And Ubunutu 1404 doesn't upgrade python3 to fix the problem.

2) shutil.copytree(symlinks=False) raises errors when there is a invalid
   symlink, and tar just prints a warning, tar is preferred here since
   the real world is unpredicatable

3) tar is faster than shutil.copytree() as said by oe.path.copytree()

So use tar to copy.
