python-wand-native needs imagemagick-6 to function

Description

The python-wand package is known to be problematic to build correctly. This is briefly summarized in the external recipe. What we have today (and what upstream has) is not completely functional and may have run-time problems.

What will pass build-time testing today is for the host to not have an imagemagick (and thus libMagickCore-6) installed. However, some run-time investigation of the resulting build shows that it might not actually do anything.

We need to at a minimum provide a version of imagemagick that python-wand can use and then confirm that it is using it.

Environment

Debian/9 with emacs24 (and thus imagemagick-6) installed, other host distributions that provide similar.

To keep JIRA and gerrit in-sync, optee-os (which is part of rcar-gen3) pulls in python-wand-native. This has only very recently been changed in upstream optee to no longer be a requirement, so it's likely something we'll stick with for Eel at least.

Question: why does this only apply to rcar-gen3  ?
