Feedback from Paul Eggleton suggested to not use the linked
term "Source Directory" in the last paragraph of this section.
Reasoning being that it is mis-leading in this case. People
reading this will be thinking more along the lines of traditional
source code rather than our establishe "Source Directory" term,
which in the doc set refers to either the unpacked poky tarball
or the cloned poky Git repository.
