This chapter only had the stuff about submitting a defect against
YP and making a change to YP. I moved that information into the
common tasks chapter as it is "how-to" information. Removal of this
chapter alse required that the mega-manual.xml file be updated to
not include the chapter.

In the section that talks about building an image for multiple
machines, there was a bullet item on managing granular level
packaging. It had an old example that used the "daisy" release
that showed how to share packages and re-use binaries. I replaced
the example with a discussion of Freescale's "fsl-dynamic-packagearch"
class, which does this type of sharing.

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.

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.
