In the "Building Images" section, we just plow into the command
line experience without giving any indication of a GUI option
through which to try out the Yocto Project. I updated the
paragraph introducing the build stuff by presenting the command
line method or a GUI method via Toaster.

"sdk_update" uses a variable newsdk_path, which was never declared.
This would cause the command:
devtool sdk-update <poky-sdk-latest>
to fail with an error:
NameError: global name 'newsdk_path' is not defined
The remedy is to declare newsdk_path as it was no doubt intended,
corresponding to the argument specifying <poky-sdk-latest>.

The code in oecore_update_bblayers() handling the transition from
meta-yocto to meta-poky was not very resilient. It would, e.g.,
mistake meta-yocto-bsp for meta-yocto if the former occurred before
the latter in BBLAYERS.
The code also failed to update multiple existences of meta-yocto in
the bblayers.conf file, e.g., if it was present in
BBLAYERS_NON_REMOVABLE in addition to BBLAYERS (which it is by
default).
