whinlatter: narrow CI and LAYERSERIES_COMPAT to whinlatter-only

First commit on the new whinlatter release branch. parse job is
dropped (poky has no whinlatter branch); parse-oe-core narrows to
just whinlatter with bitbake 2.16. build job switches from poky
clone to oe-core + bitbake clones. LAYERSERIES_COMPAT narrows to
a single series.
