Richard Purdie 2334036502 bitbake: fetch/local: Drop FILESDIR
This has long since been deprecated and is no longer used anywhere, FILESPATH
is the commonly used varaible which offers much more flexibility. Remove
the FILESDIR code and references from bitbake.

Scott Rifenbark 1a95d4a070 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Changed BB_SETSCENE_VERIFY_FUNCTION name
The BB_SETSCENE_VERIFY_FUNCTION variable has effectively changed
to BB_SETSCENE_VERIFY_FUNCTION2.  I changed the three areas in the
book.  Basically a name change.

Added a new Perforce Fetcher section in the same spirit as the existing
sections for other supported fetchers.  Changes included the new section,
removal of the bulleted item that mentioned this fetcher as an
"additional" fetcher, and the creation of a new variable in the glossary
named P4DIR.

Christopher Larson 32ee30a46d bitbake: Provide LAYERDIR_RE for layer.conf
This variable is a regex-escaped version of LAYERDIR, for safer use in
BBFILE_PATTERN, so as to avoid issues with regex special characters in the
layer path.

Scott Rifenbark 203aaaec08 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Cleaned up parallelism note and formatted user input
I updated the note in the second chapter that discusses the role for
BB_NUMBER_THREADS.  The updates make it a bit clearer.

Also scrubbed the manual for instances of user-supplied values to check
how they are being formatted.  I fixed the formatting to use the
<replaceable></replaceable> tags so they are in italics.

Richard Purdie 392de9d568 bitbake: doc: Rename user-manual -> bitbake-user-manual
This manual gets combined with other manuals and in that context, it helps
a lot if its seen as the Bitbake User Manual. Renames are a pain but
this is worthwhile so that other docs can correctly be combined with this
one. This also clarifies things like google search results which is helpful.
