Changed the title of the chapter to "Syntax and Operators". It
was called "Metadata".
Removed the bulk the "Checksums (Signatures)" section and the
placeholder for "Setscene". These are now in the "Execution"
chapter.
Created a more appropriate overview blurb to start the chapter.

This is a rough draft of the chapter. Major sections are in
place. We need to scrub content now.
Seems like the discussion of BBFILES fit better in this
execution flow chapter. So, I moved it above the parsing
section.

This commit added need files, cleaned up bogus links, and
adjusted the build file, which is user-manual.xml.
The new chapter file is "user-manual-execution.xml". The file
has base text from the bitbake section from the "Closer Look"
chapter of the YP ref-manual. This means that I had to initially
include some figures from that book for now. I am not including
them as part of this commit though as they will likely get renamed.
I made sure that all links were removed that were specific to the
YP ref-manual.
Another change was in the user-manual.xml file to include
the new chapter as part of the build.
Another block of text for the new chapter was the "Running a Task"
section from the user-manual-metadata.xml file. Consequently, that
section was deleted from the "Metafile" chapter.
Another block of text for the new chapter was the "Parsing
and Execution" section from the user-manual-metadata.xml file.
Consequently, that section was deleted from the "Metafile chapter.

that was there. I still need to format it some.
Also fixed up the term "datastore". It should not be "data store"

I cleaned up this section with some general improvements.
I also broke this up into a couple sub-sections where it seemed
to logically fall. Also, stole some metadata concept from the
next section ("Running Tasks") that really should be lumped under
"Tasks".

I made some general improvements in the "Overview" and
"Basic Syntax" sections. Additionally, I added a blank
section for "Variable Flags" that will eventually hold general
information on this concept. Finally, come review edits to the
"Defining Pure Python Functions" section per Paul Eggleton.

I performed a general edit to this chapter. Some significant changes
include changing the chapter's title to "Overview" when it was titled
"BitBake User Manual", doing some consolidation of text to eliminate
a couple sections that described methods to obtain a copy of BitBake,
and various improvements as needed.

I commented out two blocks of code that are responsible
for getting the book's title to format onto the title page.
Commenting the code out suppresses the title from the
PDF version's title page yet retains the title text for the
HTML tab space of the browser. The reason this is necessary
is because the BitBake User Manual uses an image file for
the title. Thus, it is not necessary to print the title
again.

There were two section tags that used the same id name "classes".
One was in the intro chapter and one was in the metadata chapter.
This was causing an exception in the PDF creation process and
breaking it. I renamed the tag in the metadata chapter
"metadata-classes".
