#259: orogen: default deployments cause #import_types_from(base) to be called on
the typekit at compile time but not at runtime

 I have an orogen project that looks like this

 {{{
 name "spacebot_motioncontroller"
 version "0.1"

 using_library 'base-types'
 import_types_from 'base/motion_command.h'
 import_types_from 'base/actuators/commands.h'

 task_context "Task" do
   input_port('motion_cmd_in', '/base/MotionCommand2D')
   output_port('actuator_mov_cmds_out', '/base/actuators/Command')
   periodic 1.0
 end
 }}}

 At compile time, everything is fine. However, at runtime, orocos.rb
 complains that the base/MotionCommand2D type is not defined.

 The problem, it seems, is that the typekit for this project does not
 include the base types. Disabling the default deployments do cause the
 typekit to include these types (and running is fine).

 It seems that the default deployments cause the base typekit to be loaded
 at compile time BEFORE the project's typekit is generated, but not at
 runtime.
