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
the image features. The text pretty much passed off image
features as all mapping into package groups, which is not true.
Some, like "debug-tweaks for example, are more like general
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.

For the yocto-project-qs, I removed the mirror information in the

now in the dev-manual. I also, removed the fetchall variation of
the bitbake command. Both areas reference into the new section of
