Remove default inclusion of kernel-modules

Remove the kernel-modules meta package append to IMAGE_INSTALL
from the default base-agl.inc aglsetup.sh template, as it essentially
turns a developer convenience into default behavior that may not be
desirable by all users.  Note that this does change the contents of
agl-image-(boot|minimal|weston) with respect to kernel modules on
most platforms, but if this proves problematic it is recommended that
kernel-modules be added back elsewhere in a more transparent fashion.
A corresponding change will be made in meta-agl-demo to retain the
behavior for the demo platform images.
