* BBFILES should be appended to with +=
* BBPATH should be appended to with .=
* Immediate expansion is not necessary for BBFILE_PRIORITY
* Immediate expansion is not necessary for references in layer.conf
to LAYERDIR since these are automatically expanded at the end of
parsing the file (and have been for some time).
* Add collection name override to BBFILE_PRIORITY example
* Fix comments referring to old structure ("packages directory" or
"recipes directory")

A couple sets of review comments from Paul applied here.
1. Added the "read-only-rootfs" item to the EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES
variable description and a link to the appropriate section
in the dev-manual.
2. Pulled the how-to-create a package repository section out
of the section on how to customize an image with the
IMAGE_FEATURES and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES section and made
it a stand-alone section in the "Tasks" chapter of the
dev-manual.
3. Integrated the SSH server example into the main topic
because we don't want an isolated sub-section within a
main topic.
4. In the image features section of the ref-manual, I fixed
the link with the "read-only-rootfs" feature to go to
the now-isolated section on how to do that instead of
going to the customizing an image using the IMAGE_FEATURES
and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES variables section.

Two things fixed:
1. A couple examples for setting up a layer.conf file were
using the meta-yocto configuration file as an example.
Turns out this is a bad example because the BBPATH variable
is appended to the LAYERDIR when setting BBPATH rather
than the other way around. That is because meta-yocto
is a distro layer. BSP layers, however, are not distro
layers and are the norm here. So I switched up the way
BBPATH was set and actually called out meta-yocto-bsp
config file as a template.
2. Added a link for the BBPATH variable in the
FILESYSTEM_PERMS_TABLES variable description in the
glossary. Just happened to notice this so I fixed it

Fixes YOCTO #3662
I added more information to the variable desription in the
glossary for BBMASK. The information included a bit more
syntax information as well as some more complex examples.
I added more reference information to the "Excluding Recipes
From the Build" section to help better describe how the
BBMASK variable works.

Updates to the description so _prepend is used to add paths
to the front of the search order and use of the variable
without _prepend just adds paths to the end of the
FILESPATH order.
