I added more content to this task description to help describe how
patching is performed and how the task uses the "apply" parameter
that can be provided with the SRC_URI variable.

This section presents a deep dive into the patching phase of the
build process. I removed the vague "apply=yes" reference and added
more references for the reader to read and learn about patching.
The bit about the SRC_URI parameters (i.e. "apply") is going to be
covered in the do_patch documentation since that is the task that
handles that stuff.

I added a link to the BUILD_ARCH variable. The variable is part
of the glossary but for some reason there was no link to it.
I also added a note for a link to the SDK_ARCH variable, which
was described inline. By convention, I do not like to link to
variables inline as the underlining used to indicate a link messes
with with underscore characters that are usually a part of a
varible's name.

As suggested in a recent mail thread by Martin Jansa, there are cases in
which QEMU under KVM will crash because of CPU feature incompatibilities
between compiled binaries and the host CPU under which qemu is run.
Although this is hard to fully escape, we should document the issue to
help people work around it. I have taked Martin's suggested patch
and did some rewording for the new section.
