After introducing the DISTRO_LATEST_TAG and DISTRO_REL_LATEST_TAG
macros, use them in links that currently use DISTRO/DISTRO_REL_TAG. When
building for the tip of a branch, this will replace the current A.B.999
in links to the latest existing tag.
The links were found across the documentation by running 'grep -r
"http.*5\.2\.999"' inside the _build/html output after building the
docs.

The command `devtool deploy-target` does not handle any dependency of
the application, even when properly listed in DEPENDS or RDEPENDS. While
the current documentation was clear on that, it felt needed to add a
note on the fact that build-time dependencies may also result in
runtime dependencies, especially for people new to the project.
Add a warning block below the existing deploy-target documentation.
Also, link to the Overview and Concepts page, which explains it
thoroughly.

The variable SRCPV is deprecated since 4.3. Instead of including SRCPV
in PV, including the sign "+" is enough for bitbake to add the source
control information to PKGV during the packaging phase.
Update the documentation for SRCPV and the places where it was used.
When instructions previously referred to SRCPV, replace by mentioning to
include "+" in the assignment.
In most examples, "+git" is added to PV as it is the most popular SCM.
Simply adding "+" is also possible, although it is better practice to
include the SCM name, so give that example.
Update the gcompat example with l3afpad as it didn't include "+git" in
its PV definition anymore.

With the recent changes from commit
bd6265ca323fac547a197bb516dc4a9ef3897508 ("doc: Makefile: add support
for xelatex"), the list of dependencies needs to be updated.
The initial list of dependencies was made for Ubuntu/Debian, and the
packages were translated for the other distros using pkgs.org.
Add them separately from the rest of the dependencies as they pull a
_lot_ of additional dependencies (for LaTeX).
Move the texlive-fncychap documentation dependency to the PDF specific
dependency.
Notes:
- Fedora/OpenSUSE do not have the "lang-all" texlive collection, so
install all available languages.
- AlmaLinux does not seem to provide texlive-collection-fontsextra,
texlive-collection-lang*, and texlive-collection-latexextra, so add a
warning about that.

Use yaml ">" to list the dependencies in alphabetical order, one entry
