With "read-only-rootfs" in IMAGE_FEATURES, packages in ROOTFS_RO_UNNEEDED
are removed when building the rootfs. The list of packages to remove is
passed to the package manager and the list is sorted so that
update-alternatives provider is the last entry. This is with the
assumption that the last entry on the list/command line is removed last.
However, it turns out rpm does not care about "last on the command
line" and update-alternatives provider is removed before other the
packages get to run their %preun scripts for update-alternatives.
This leaves broken alternative symlinks in rootfs.
The fix is to first remove all but update-alternatives provider and
after that update-alternatives provider in its own remove() call.

Commit glib-2.0: recommend shared-mime-info
(51e4f9ca5368af5cefa26f4ca50b282e858982f8) broke compilation when cross
compiling for Windows. This patch removes the recommendation for
shared-mime-info when using MinGW cross compile.

When a device is opened for RW closing it can trigger other actions,
like udev scanning it for partition changes. Use read only for the
init_* methods and RW for actual changes to the device.
This adds _device_open which takes mode flags as an argument and turns
linux_open into a wrapper for it with RW_MODE.
_device_open_ro is added to open the device with RD_MODE and increment
the open_counter. This is used in the init_* functions.
_device_close is a wrapper around linux_close that decrements the
open_counter and is used in the init_* functions.
All of these changes are self-contained with no external API changes.
The only visible change in behavior is that when a new PedDevice is
created the device is opened in RO_MODE instead of RW_MODE.

Needed to remove an old example that was showing how two BSPs could
share the same KMACHINE value. I replaced it with corei7-based
machines. Also noted that KMACHINE is for kernel mapping only
whereas MACHINE is for the layer's BSP machine type.

This section was largely redundant now. The small things that did
add value I placed in other areas of the chapter 2. One was a new
section on expanding variables using bitbake -e. Another was a bit
about the defconfig file. And a small procedure on how to create
config fragments using the "diffconfig" command was retained.
Links from the dev-manual and the ref-manual were adjusted as well.
