MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS won't always grab your

patch documents that your out-of-tree module needs to explicitly
set its PACKAGES variable to avoid this behavior.

Updated several classes with feedback from Jose Lamego of Intel.
The feedback fixed some class groupings so that previously isolated
classes could be bundled under common classes (e.g.
autotools*.bbclass).
I scrubbed the cross-references for cases where a particular
class became "undocumented." The cross-references now point to
the bundled class entry in the ref-manual.

I added some more detail to these two variables. The system sets
them according to the perceived number of cores. These default
setting are cool for single socket systems. However, if you
have some big system with a lot of physical CPUs, you might want
to cap off the values at 20. This is according to Darren Hart.
I also put in some cross-references to the "Speeding Up the Build"

locate information on how to write packages out to a directory
other than ${DEPLOY_DIR}/<package_type>, I updated the "Package
Feeds" section, added several new DEPLOY_DIR_* variables, updated
four classes, and updated four tasks. Here are some details:
* Made changes to the "Package Feeds" section to provide more
accurate information in the package feeds directory structure
used by the build system in build/tmp. These changes included
updating the figure itself and some explanatory text.
* Updated the DEPLOY_DIR variable description.
* Added new variable descriptions for DEPLOY_DIR_DEB, DEPLOY_DIR_IPK,
DEPLOY_DIR_RPM, and DEPLOY_DIR_TAR.
* Updated the related classes: package_deb, package_ipk, package_rpm,
and package_tar.
* Updated the related tasks: do_package_write_deb, do_package_write_ipk,
do_package_write_rpm, and do_package_write_tar.
