Partial fix for [YOCTO #5368]
The list that summarized where to get YP release did not include
the source repositories. It basically just listed tarball
areas. Now that cloning the Git repo of poky is the preferred
method for obtaining YP, I made sure that this area was the
first spot listed and called out as the preferred method.

Changes partially address this issue, which is the removal of
tarball installations for poky. The notes at the beginning of
the YP manuals suggested that the tarball version of a manual
might lag the version found on the website. Because we are
discouraging installing poky/documentation from a tarball now,
I have re-written the note to be generic and suggest simply that
for the most recent version of the manual associated with the
release, see the manual on the website.

Fixes [YOCTO #5035]
By default, the DL_DIR does not get files from Git repositories
that are suitable for mirroring. There is a work-around by
using the BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS variable, which, when
set, causes the build system to generate tarballs for the
Git repositories and place them in the DL_DIR.
To address this, I added a new variable description for the
BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS varible, updated the DL_DIR
variable to indicate that "out-of-the-box" the YP puts suitable
mirror files into the DL_DIR for everthing except Git
repositories.
Some other sections were updated where discussion revolved around
pulling down source files. The QS had a spot where the
BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS variable was actually used in an
example. And, the expanded discussion on the BitBake process
had a couple spots that deserved a mention.
