There's a (second) overhead factor applied in images generated with Wic,
and this is already documented in the .wks reference. However, the
IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR entry does not mention it, and by looking at the
partition sizes (e.g. with parted) one may find it confusing that they
don't match with the expected rootfs size (e.g. in a scenario where the
extra space is "0" and IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR="1.0").
This second overhead is already documented, though:
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/kickstart.html#command-part-or-partition
Mention the '--overhead-factor' option in the glossary entry and add a
reference to the wks documentation.

Document these methods, and begin with the preferred approach which is

In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"

In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when

COMPATIBLE_MACHINE is used to forbid the use of a recipe or its packages
for a specific set of machines.
In some cases, it may make more sense to have the logic inverted and
have the recipe always forbidden except for hand-picked machines. Such
could be the case for pieces of software that only support some
architectures. In that scenario, it is sometimes a bit easier on the eye
and for maintenance to use the OVERRIDES mechanism but for that, a
default should be set.
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:aarch64 = "^(aarch64)$"
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:mips64 = "^(mips64)$"
wouldn't do much because if COMPATIBLE_MACHINE isn't set, the recipe is
assumed compatible and therefore, if no default is provided we enter
that case.
Hence, we need to add
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "^$"
as default so that it only matches the empty string, which isn't
possible for MACHINEOVERRIDES.
