Building images usally stores them in KDIR_TMP and then copies them over
to BIN_DIR. This is fine as rebuilding of images overwrites existing
images. When using the EXTRA_IMAGE_NAME variable frequently this fills
up the ImageBuilder KDIR_TMP folder since every built image is stored
forever.

This commit clears the KDIR_TMP folder before building a new image.

Below an example how sysupgrade.openwrt.org filled up after the release
of 22.03.0 where every created image contains a hash of the package
selction in the filename:
