manifest_xml: prevent extend-project from inheriting local groups

When extending a project in a local manifest, the project inherits the
`local:` group. This causes the superproject override logic (which omits
projects with `local:` groups) to incorrectly exclude the project from
the override manifest. This leads to "extend-project element specifies
non-existent project" errors during sync reload.

Fix this by stripping `local:` groups from extended projects, ensuring
they remain visible to superproject overrides while still allowing other
inherited groups to persist.
