Minor edits to the BSP Guide, the Development Manual, and the
Kernel Manual to address [YOCTO #1717], which noted confusion
over the kernel manual when a user was trying to find kernel
configuration information.
The fix for this bug involved several areas. I had previously
created a new section called "Kernel Configuration" in the kernel
manual and "Configuring the Kernel" in the YP Development manual.
There were several rounds of feedback from Bruce Ashfield.
This commit represents the final touches on the three manuals to
address the bug.

I converted the hard links to use the variables as established
in the file poky.ent.
Also, Cleaned up some bad text in the term "Yocto Project Files."
Looks like a cut-and-paste problem.

The section describing how to set up meta-intel has been re-written
to provide more information about this Git repository and why
it is important. Also, added information explaining why user
should use the same set up method (tarball or Git repo) as used
to set up the YP files tree.

I received a patch from Robert P. J. Day that had several changes.
Curiously, several did not apply. I think that the patch was
applied using a version other than the "latest" version. In
any case, I applied the changes that did need applied.

Added a bit more information to the wording where it talks about
creating a Git Repository if you are going to contribute back
into YP. This change was suggested by Robert P. J. Day and
was submitted to me in the form of a patch. For reasons unknown
to me the patch Hunk failed even though I believe I had things
saved and applied correctly. I had to resort to applying it by
hand. I ended up doing a bit of re-writing on the suggested
change to clean it up.

Several topics in the "Common Tasks" chapter really fit better in
the "Newbie" chapter. I moved these sections out. I also combined
information from the section on submitting changes from the
"Common Tasks" and the "Newbie" chapter to live in the "Newbie"
chapter only.

The change to the dev-manual-newbie.xml file was minor. I added
a link anchor for the term "metadata."
The change to the dev-manual-common-tasks.xml was extensive. I have
added an entirely new section on layers called "Understanding and
Using Layers." The new material has several sub-sections.
Information was based on emails from Paul Eggleton.
