base.bbclass: Use subprocess rather than os.system for do_unpack
gzip reports broken pipe errors with do_unpack on Fedora with certain builds of gzip and bash. By avoding python's SIGPIPE handler we can work correctly on these distributions. Patch based on a patch from the OE-devel mailing list, thanks to Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> and Holger Freyther <zecke@selfish.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@linux.intel.com>
