dev-manual: Add info on build env initialization
Going through the docs we a new trainee, we noticed that the build initialization is only mentioned in the quick build (https://docs.yoctoproject.org/brief-yoctoprojectqs/index.html) but not in the in-depth getting started documentation. While this is repeatedly mentioned later on, e.g. in the "building" section, you might easily end up somewhere where this has not been mentioned yet. E.g. in our case this was: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev-manual/layers.html# (which comes right after the "setup" chapter) -> https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev-manual/layers.html#creating-a-general-layer-using-the-bitbake-layers-script (which is linked right at the top) To avoid any confusion I think it best to mention this required step directly in the "start" document.

Initializing the Build Environment
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Before you can use Yocto you need to setup the build environment.
|
||||
From within the ``poky`` directory, source the :ref:`ref-manual/structure:\`\`oe-init-build-env\`\`` environment
|
||||
setup script to define Yocto Project's build environment on your build host::
|
||||
|
||||
$ source oe-init-build-env
|
||||
|
||||
Note, that this step will have to be repeated every time you open a new shell.
