Completed draft of the new devtool material. This commit affects
some linking and figures across the YP doc set.
* Added the build-workspace-directory.png file to both the
dev-manual and the mega-manual.
* Updated the Makefile to include the new figure in the TARFILE
for dev-manual and mega-manual.
* Re-did the section organization to pull the quilt and finding
source file out of the "Modifying Source Files" section.

This start to the script is not really necessary and is in fact
the rare case. I have removed two occurrences of it in the
"Post-Installation Scripts" section where it was used in code
as the best form to create a script.

The section on "Handling a Package Name Alias" was confusing and
wrong. We decided to eliminate it. The section was removed from
the dev-manual. The corresponding variable DISTRO_PN_ALIAS
remains for now but without the cross-reference link to the
now missing section.

In the "Fetching Code" section, some loose description of how the
build system reacts to the two checksums in a recipe existed.
Robert asked some questions about how the behavior would be if
just a single, correct checksum existed and if the two existed but
only one proved correct. Turns out, if you supply a single one then
the build will not throw an error or warning. If you supply two
but one is incorrect, then the build will throw an error or
warning. I updated the text to be technically correct without
going into huge details.

This section was a bit confusing on the use of "_prepend" as associated
with the FILESEXTRAPATHS statement. Especially in the final note
where it indicated you don't need "_prepend" if your append file
is not adding any new files. I updated the note to be more specific.
Another small change I made was to replace the Crown Bay BSP referenced
in the section with the Emenlow BSP, which has a longer life span than
CB.

The section "Customizing Images Using Custom IMAGE_FEATURES
and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES" needed a bit more clarification on

features as all mapping into package groups, which is not true.

configurations. I updated the section accordingly.

The section on wrting a new recipe suggested using a "build-fail"
method to get bitbake to return exact checksums for code. It
was pointed out that this could be a middle-security risk and
that we should not do that but instead get the signatures from
the upstream website. However, many times those sites don't
provide that information. I re-worded the text to note the
ideal method (upstream checksums) and then resorted to the
"build-fail" method as a "way" to also get them when the upstream
location does not have them.
