8e81c67e12 dev-manual: update custom distribution section
In keeping with the addition of the motd message pointing out that
the poky DISTRO is a reference distribution, adjust the opening of the
Creating Your Own Distribution section to match. Additionally, add a
section on the end pointing out what users need to consider if they just
take a copy of the poky distribution and modify it.

Less memory was not enough and caused Out of Memory failures.

fa870dfd0f manuals: suppress excess use of "following" word
To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are"
by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural.

In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"
by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at
the end of the sentence.

In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when
it's redundant with the preceding title.
