Scott Rifenbark 39639ad3ea dev-manual: Updates to the "Writing a New Recipe" section.
Made several improvements to this section.

 * fixed a typo where a YP release was referred to as 7.1
   instead of 1.7

 * Added a note box to the "Using Variables" list item
   elaborating on the expansion behavior.

 * Removed the detail around the WORKDIR discussion.

 * In the "Loccate or Automatically Create a Base Recipe",
   I added the devtool add method to the list of ways to
   create a base recipe.

Scott Rifenbark 72d1435f20 documentation: Added new description for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable.
Fixes [YOCTO #10183]

Added a new variable entry for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable.

With the introduction of the new PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable,
many places in the mainstream YP documentation that referenced
how to pass configure arguments using EXTRA_OECONF needed to also
make mention of this new variable.  I added many cross-references
to the new variable.

Scott Rifenbark cd48ccccaf dev-manual: Added notes to clarify use of pkg-config
Fixed [YOCTO #8168]

I placed a couple notes in the "Configuration" and "Compilation"
sections within the "Writing a New Recipe" section.  These notes
point out that the build system (as of release 1.7) now disables
several *-config scripts.  The user should be using "pkg-config"
to ensure proper pathname construction and location of these
types of scripts.

Fixes [YOCTO #8298]

Updated several classes with feedback from Jose Lamego of Intel.
The feedback fixed some class groupings so that previously isolated
classes could be bundled under common classes (e.g.
autotools*.bbclass).

I scrubbed the cross-references for cases where a particular
class became "undocumented."  The cross-references now point to
the bundled class entry in the ref-manual.

Scott Rifenbark ab23dd967e yocto-project-qs and others: Rewrite of the QS
This was a complete re-write of the YP Quick Start in an attempt
to streamline it, remove unecessary detail, and make it flow better
with the examples.  In doing so, many manuals were affected due to
section headings being renamed, information being moved, etc.  Here
is a list of the changes by manual:

Makefile - Removed two figures from TARFILE list for the
           yocto-project-qs.

           Added building-an-image.png to the ref-manual TARFILE list.

           Added using-a-pre-build-image.png to the adt-manual TARFILE
           list.

           Repositioned 'eclipse' in the adt-manual TARFILE list.

adt-manual: Fixed a cross-reference so that it goes to the new
            'Building Images' section that is within the YP QS.

            Added new section 'Example Using Pre-Build Binaries and
            QEMU' to hold the information that was formerly in YP QS.

dev-manual: Removed a cross-reference into the YP QS that promised how
            to configure the most efficent build.

            Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'The Packages'
            to 'The Build System Packages'.

            Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Building an
            Image' to 'Building Images'.

            Changed a text reference from the YP QS to the adt-manual.

            Moved the bit about getting YP files by using the YP website
            from the YP QS to the dev-manual.

            Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Using Pre-Built
            Binaries and QEMU' to 'Example Using Pre-built Binaries and
            QEMU', which was moved to the adt-manual.

ref-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You
            Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'.

            Moved the note about if your system has oss4-dev in the
            packages area in the YP QS to the appropriate area in the
            ref-manual.

            Moved the introduction information regarding building an image
            along with the figure from YP QS to the ref-manual's section on
            building images.

toaster-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You
                Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto
                Project'.

yocto-project-qs: Complete rewrite that changed many section headings and
                  removed much detail, which was placed in other manuals.

The "Configuring the Kernel" section did not address "defconfig"
files.  In my opinion, this is a hole in the docs for this section.
I added a new section titled "Creating a defconfig File" that is a
sub-section of the "Configuring the Kernel" section.

Additionally, I added a brief sentence in the introductory paragraph
to include the fact that this new information exists.

Finally, I included the bitbake command that ensures that the
proper configuration steps are minimally run before a user attempts
to use bitbake to get into menuconfig.

"Debugging Parallel Make Races" section.

I added a short note to the start of the "Debugging Parallel Make
Races" section noting that if they can't properly fix the condition,
they can always do a work-around to set the PARALLEL_MAKE or
PARALLEL_MAKEINST variables to null.

Scott Rifenbark 281c4728d6 dev-manual: Edits to add more detail to where patch files are
Updated some text to indicate that you should put patch files
in $BP, $BPN, or "files."  Also, added more on how the patch
files suffix is (i.e. accounting for compressed suffix names
like diff.bz).

Scott Rifenbark f8245d98ea dev-manual: Updated section on how checksums are dealt with
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.

Scott Rifenbark c037dd7b4c dev-manual: Updates to the "Using .bbappend Files" section.
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.

Scott Rifenbark 63750d8c11 dev-manual: Updates to using IMAGE_FEATURES and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES
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.
