test_create_workspace fails

When execute:

$ BB_SERVER_TIMEOUT=100 oe-selftest -r devtool.DevtoolTests.test_create_workspace

It fails, the layer is added in conf/bblayers.conf but bitbake-layers doesn't display it, see attachment.

Seems that the bb server remains in memory and don't update the snapshot of configuration when a local.conf or bblayers.conf are modified.

A simple test to reproduce it will be,

BB_SERVER_TIMEOUT=100 oe-selftest -r bblayers.BitbakeLayers.test_bitbakelayers_add_remove
