The "image_types" class is now inherited mandatorily in
image.bbclass through the variable IMGCLASSES.  Users do not
have to inherit it in their customized image type bbclass.
They also do not have to put it in IMAGE_CLASSES.

The KERNEL_ARTIFACT_NAME variable is used throughout to set the names
of build artifacts.  Rather than repeat informaiton about
KERNEL_ARTIFACT_NAME in the many variables that use it, I added
a new entry for the variable.  This also impacted the descriptions
of the variables that were repeating information.  I updated those
variable descriptions as well.

f08a41e9ef dev-manual, Makefile: Created new section on multi-config build deps
Rewrote the section on setting up and executing multi-config builds.
Broke the section into two sub-sections.  One is for the standard
information that was there for setting up a multi-config build. A
new section was for the cross-build dependencies in multi-config
builds.

Part of the re-write included creating a new figure that shows
the configuration file hierarchy needed for these types of builds.
So, new figure added to both the dev-manual and the mega-manual
figures directories.

Finally, the Makefile needed updated to account for the new figures.

Changed the section heading in the dev-manual for building images for
multiple targets useing multiple configurations.  This wording is
more accurate.  I updated the link from the BBMULTI_CONFIG variable
description as well.

e0e333b485 ref-manual: Removed misleading paragraph in siteinfo.bbclass
The section on the siteinfo.bbclass file had a paragraph indicating
base.bbclass included siteinfo.class.  This is not true since
2010.  I removed the paragraph.
