f1a7cb96a5 sdk-manual: Updated note about some tools being deprecated
The note was written such that it appears some performance tools
were just recently deprecated with this release of the Eclipse
Yocto Project plug-in.  This is not the case.  I updated the
note wording to simply state that those tools are deprecated
with the plug-in.

ef753009ea concepts-manual: Updated Image Generation section.
Added wording to note that the rootfs might be compressed
depending on the IMAGE_FSTYPES setting, which would have to
actually do compression.  Also, fixed examples of "do_image_type"
and "do_image_ext4" so that there is no "[depends]" as part
of the example.

39810ff505 documentation: Fixed "Getting Started" manual links
There was inconsistent use when referencing the getting-started
manual.  The manual's name does not include the word
"Manual".  So, I cleaned this up across the manual set and
also in the mega-manual.sed file, which was incorrectly
processing the links to that manual that do not target a
specific section.

52a0499dfc documentation: Added brief-yoctoprojectqs to mega-manual
The original QS (yocto-project-qs) has been retired for the YP
sumo (2.5) release.  The manual has been replaced with the
brief, two-page quick build document (brief-yoctoprojectqs).

I needed to create a new title figure for the manual to include
as part of the mega-manual (bypqs-title.png).  The figure was
added to the figures folder of both the bried-yoctoprojectqs
and mega-manual book folders.  I also removed the old
ypqs-title.png file that was used for the original QS.

Updated the stylesheet doc for the brief build to include a
style using the new title .PNG file.

Updated the mega-manual.xml file to include the brief doc and
exclude the original QS.

bd6580fc18 documentation: Purged the YP Quick Start references from YP set
The original Yocto Project Quick Start is being retired for the
YP 2.5 release (sumo).  I have purged all the various references
from the YP manual set and replaced them with references to the
appropriate doc.  The references were mainly into the YP
dev-manual for setting up the host or for building an image.
There were a few references into the new "Yocto Project Quick
Build" document for overviewing manual-type references.

80c7ca2c28 kernel-dev: Clean up of "bsp_name" placeholder.
This string is now being presented as "bsp_root_name" in the YP
manual set.  A BSP name is essentially "meta-bsp_root_name".
It was being presented in the manual set as "meta-bsp_name",
which is not technically correct.

ce8c96481e bsp-guide: Updated BSP terminolgy and BBLAYERS ordering
Fixed the way we refer to a BSP name.  It is really
"meta-<bsp_root_name>" rather than "meta-<bsp_name>".  The
name is the whole string and not just the root name.

Also added a tip on ordering the layers in the BBLAYERS
variable in the bblayers.conf file.  Order is important.

b3732ab1aa dev-manual: Cleaned up layer naming terminology
Reality dictates that the YP does not treat layer naming consistently.
Layers are talked about as the "meta-whatever" layer and never the
"whatever" layer.  However, the tooling sometimes appends or uses
just the "whatever" part of the layer name.  A good example is the
meta-yocto-bsp configuration file.  All the variables in there use
just the root name of a layer's name.  In the manuals, I had been
distinguishing the layer name as just the "whatever" part sans
"meta-".  I talked about the convention of using "meta-" in front
of layer names, etc.  Well, this is confusing in light of how everyone
says a layer's name is "meta-whatever".  So, I fixed all this up.

fcbe72179c documentation: Updated the section on creating a general script
Split this section into two sections: one for creating the layer
using bitbake-layers create-layer and one for adding the layer
to bblayers.conf using bitbake-layers add-layer.

Needed to update some references in the yocto-project-qs and
kernel-dev manuals.

955e49c134 dev-manual: Created tip for using server outside of build area
Fixes [YOCTO #12419]

In the section on runtime package management, I created a "Tip"
box to tell the user about using a location for the package
index information outside of the "deploy" area of the hosts
build directory.
