ecf1e3d1b1 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: Updated do_package_write example
Given that the "do_package_write" task doesn't exist in OE anymore,
steal another, existing example to demonstrate the "rdeptask" flag.

d74b8824ae bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: fixed some example whitespace issues
I added some whitespace to bring the example to use 5 spaces
rather than for so that it follows the manual's convention.

335defe010 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: KERNEL_FEATURES example updated.
I added text to separate this example code from the general
BitBake User Manual's spirit of standing alone and away from
YP or OE stuff.  Also, added another space to move the examples
code so that 5 spaces are used for literal indentation.

c723fa02f6 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: Fixed whitespace
I noticed that the examples from some patches were not indenting
by 5 spaces.  I have fixed these to be consistent.

eb169fe8b3 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: Added second conditional metadata example.
I think having a couple real-life examples here would make a huge
difference.

Comment from Scott: I modified the example description to indicate
that it is from an OpenEmbedded metadata-based recipe (i.e from
YP).  We have been trying very hard to keep the BitBake User
Manual as separate as possible from the YP docs.

49627bbad3 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: Adding some flag examples.
As long as i've understood everything correctly, this is just
throwing in some physical examples of a couple concepts.

f1b9c7ea32 bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: Added section on pathname syntax
Added a brief subsection to the "Basic Syntax" section that
describes the issue using the tilde character (~) when providing
a pathname as part of a statement.  BitBake does not expand
this character like the shell does.  We recommend to not use
it in pathnames.

ea4e822b8d bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-metadata.xml: New section on anonymous Python functions
Per Paul Eggleton's suggestion, I added a new section on
anonymous Python functions into the "Functions" section.
I also updated the intro text to account for the added
type of functions.

392de9d568 bitbake: doc: Rename user-manual -> bitbake-user-manual
This manual gets combined with other manuals and in that context, it helps
a lot if its seen as the Bitbake User Manual. Renames are a pain but
this is worthwhile so that other docs can correctly be combined with this
one. This also clarifies things like google search results which is helpful.
