Added the new useradd-staticids class to the reference section
for classes.
Updated the USERADD_UID_TABLES and USERADD_GID_TABLES variables
to tell how the system uses BBPATH in the default mode to
get UID and GID information from the files/passwd and files/group
files.
Added a note indicating that you can delete the TMPDIR directory
to fix things up if you configure useradd-staticids in a
configured system.

section and the variable descriptions for SYSTEM_AUTO_ENABLE,
SYSTEM_PACKAGES, and SYSTEMD_SERVICE.

I did not eliminate this variable but rather changed the description
to indicate that it has been deprecated and that the user should now
use a PR Service to do this stuff. There were several areas in the
YP manual set that used the variable in code. I just deleted those
lines from the code.

Updated the TMPDIR variable to call out the scenario where a user
might want to separtely set TMPDIR to a local drive and thus be
able to have the Build Directory on NFS.
Updated the "Build Directory" term with a note indicating that by
default, TMPDIR is inside the Build Directory and thus cannot be
on NFS. However, the user is able to by-pass that per setting
TMPDIR separately outside of the Build Directory.
