Added a bulleted list to the "Terms" section to help define
some toolchain recipes such as gcc-cross-initial,
gcc-cross-intermediate, and so forth.
Added a cross-reference link to the term
"Cross-Development Toolchain" in the the "Working Using
Stand-alone Cross-development Toolchains" section.
This gives the reader a way to see more on the toolchain
recipes.

I went through and got rid of all references to the old
YP Kernel Architecture and Use Manual and replaced with
appropriate references to the new YP Linux Kernel
Development Manual.
I also laced in appropriate references into various sections
of the new YP Profiling and Tracing Manual.
Also, updated the list of resource manuals to reflect the
new manual set (addition of kernel-dev and profile-dev and
removal of kernel-manual).

Each time the kernel revision is bumped (e.g. 3.2 to 3.4)
Some of the figures would be out of date. The reason is they
had pathnames that included the release of the kernel.
For previous YP releases I was adding logic to the Makefile
to be sure to catch the right files dependent on the branch
from which the documents were being built. This scheme is
not scalable so I decided to make the figures generic by
adding a note within the figures explaining the place-holder
"<x.x>" as part of a pathname. Thus, three new figures were
added to the folders directories of the dev-manual and the
mega-manual. Correspondingly, the 'denzil' version of the
figures were deleted.
I modified the Makefile so that if the BRANCH is not edison
or denzil then the generic figure set is used. I have to retain
the logic for both edison and denzil to cover the case where
a user clones or sets up an edison or denzil repo and then
builds out the manuals. Basically, it had to be backwards
compatible for releases prior to danny.
