Otavio Salvador b5606f32cd Globally replace 'base_contains' calls with 'bb.utils.contains'
The base_contains is kept as a compatibility method and we ought to
not use it in OE-Core so we can remove it from base metadata in
future.

1.5 release. Architecture names will change within package feeds as a result.

Documented the user requirement to use PACKAGE_INSTALL to specify
packages for installation into an initramfs image.  Normally,
you use IMAGE_INSTALL.  To account for this user model, I updated
the PACKAGE_INSTALL and IMAGE_INSTALL variables.  I also added
a bit more information to the "Images" chapter item that
talks about the core-image-minimal-initramfs image.
