documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-bsp-appendix.xml: re-wrote the Base BSP

Browse Source 
I re-wrote the Getting your Base BSP section to reflect the example only.
Previously, there was a lot of information in there about getting BSP
files that was deemed universal and was moved to the getting started
chapter.

download the BSP tarball and extract it, or set up a local Git repository that
has the Yocto Project BSP layers.
You should use the same method that you used to get the local Yocto Project files earlier.
See the <xref linkend='getting-setup'>Getting Setup</xref> earlier in this manual
for information on how to get the BSP files.

If you are using tarball extraction, simply download the tarball for the base
BSP you chose in the previous step and then extract it into any directory
you choose using the tar command.
Upon extraction, the BSP source directory (layer) will be named
<filename>meta-&lt;BSP_name&gt;</filename>.
The following command extracts the Crown Bay BSP into the current directory and names it
<filename>meta-crownbay</filename>:

If you cloned a <filename>poky</filename> Git repository
then you need to set up a different local Git repository
(<filename>meta-intel</filename>) for the BSP.
This example assumes a local <filename>meta-intel</filename> Git repository
inside the local <filename>poky</filename> Git repository.
The <filename>meta-intel</filename> Git repository contains all the metadata
that supports BSP creation.
When you set up the <filename>meta-intel</filename> Git repository you can
set it up anywhere you want.
We will set up the repository inside the
<filename>poky</filename> Git repository in this example.
