security related issues discovered since the 2019.05.2 release.

- Defconfigs: fixes for aarch64-efi and beaglebone

- Dependencies: Ensure host has JSON::PP perl module installed if
  webkitgtk/wpewebkit packages are enabled as it is needed during their
  build process.

- Toolchain: Generate check-headers program under BUILD_DIR rather than
  /tmp to fix issues with distributions mounting /tmp noexec.

  e2fsprogs, exim, expat, go, libcurl, libgcrypt, libnss, libopenssl,
  mariadb, mbedtls, mongodb, mosquitto, nghttp2, nodejs, php, putty,
