* meta-ros is compatible with Yocto 2.4 Rocko without any special
handling needed to integrate it, mark it as compatible
* LAYERSERIES_COMPAT variables are used only since 2.4 Rocko, so with
even older Yocto releases this isn't an issue, but with 2.4 it was
failing with:
bitbake -e zlib | tee env.zlib

ERROR: Layer ros-layer is not compatible with the core layer which only supports these series: rocko (layer is compatible with sumo)
* and it's a bit complicated to override LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_ros-layer
from local build without meta-ros modification, changing it in some
other (own) layer, which is parsed after meta-ros works, but you might
not have suitable layer for this.
