Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

Moving the "Yocto Project Terms" section from the dev-manual to the
ref-manual broke links for the "cross-development-toolchain" term.
I have fixed these.

Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

Moving the "Yocto Project Terms" section from the dev-manual to the
ref-manual broke several links to the id "build-directory".  I fixed
these to reference into the ref-manual now.

Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

Moving the "Yocto Project Terms" section from the dev-manual to
the ref-manual caused many links local to that section to be
incorrect.  I scrubbed the section and fixed all the links.

45b16e35b6 documentation: Fixed links to "bitbake-term"
Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

Moving the "Yocto Project Terms" section from the dev-manual to
the ref-manual.  Doing so caused all the links to the id
"bitbake-term" to break.  These had to be individually fixed.

Discovered two unresolved references that were a consequence of
moving that section to the ref-manual.  These were fixed as well.

ed0ecc7b76 dev-manual, ref-manual: Reorganized "Other Information"
Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

The exhaustive list of useful links and references to other
YP documentation existed in the dev-manual.  This is not the correct
place for this type of reference information.  I have moved that
list to the ref-manual where it should be.  The dev-manual now
simply provides a link into that section.

741dddf11a dev-manual, ref-manual: Reorganized Bugzilla information
Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

Reorganized the way the information about entering bugs using
Bugzilla is arranged in the documentation set.  The dev-manual now
has a section that is purely procedural and steps the user through
the process of logging a new bug in the Bugzilla system.  The
ref-manual has a conceptual section that introduces the YP
implementation of Bugzilla by simply telling the user what it is
and what what its purpose is.

3db3344859 ref-manual, dev-manual: Updates to support recipe-specific sysroots
Changes covered several areas.  Version 2.3 of the YP now supports
recipe-specific sysroots and is not limited to machine-specific
as was prior releases.  Manual changes were as follows:

dev-manual: "Sharing Files Between Recipes" - Wordings were changed
to support the new functionality.

ref-manual: do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task added to the list of
tasks described in "Configuration and Compilation".

ref-manual: Extensive re-write of the "staging.bbclass" section.

ref-manual: Added a section to the build structure for
build/tmp/work/tunearch/recipename/version/.  This section breaks
down the recipe-specific subdirectories used to create (stage)
the sysroot.

ref-manual: New section (entry) for the do_prepare_recipe_sysroot
task in the task chapter.

ref-manual: Added a variable glossary description for the
SSTATE_SCAN_FILES variable.

In addition to these changes, I sprinkled in a liberal amount
of cross-referencing for the readers pleasure.

f574b9f074 dev-manual, ref-manual: Added support for WKS_FILE_DEPENDS variable.
Fixes [YOCTO #11017]

There is no current way to specify or list plug-in dependencies
when building a Wic image.  The variable WKS_FILE_DEPENDS was introduced
to allow the user to use this in the recipe building the image.
I added a description and example of the variable to the ref-manual
variable glossary.  I also cross-referenced the variable in the
"Plug-ins" section of the dev-manual to point to the variable for
more information.

478c7c3043 ref-manual: Added information about pre-installed dependencies
Fixes [YOCTO #10350]

A situation exists where a user deploys a new application using
devtool target-deploy and the new application has runtime dependencies
that are not already on the target.  When this situation exists, the
application misbehaves if it calls a missing function.  I added the
explanation of this situation to the section that describes the
devtool deploy-target command.  Also, put a pointer in the section
on devtool add for cross-reference purposes.

4c1432bd0b ref-manual: Added new "Release Process" chapter
Fixes [YOCTO #10888]

The YP documentation was missing information on how the major
and minor (point) release process works.  I added a new chapter
in front of the "Maintenance" chapter that details the naming
schemes, cadence, and maintenance for YP releases.

e6ed5a6804 ref-manual: Added five "COPYLEFT*" variables to the glossary.
Fixes [YOCTO #11021]

The "Maintaining Open Source License Compliance During Your
Product's Lifecycle" section in the dev manual covers use of
archiver.bbclass, but is missing mention of the filtering
options (e.g COPYLEFT_LICENSE_INCLUDE, COPYLEFT_LICENSE_EXCLUDE
and COPYLEFT_RECIPE_TYPES).  I added descriptions for these
three.  During the write-up, Paul noticed a couple other variables
missing: COPYLEFT_PN_INCLUDE and COPYLEFT_PN_EXCLUDE.  I also
added descriptions for these two variables.

Fixes [YOCTO #11010]

The second example was incorrect in the glossary entry.  Instead
of "1" an image name place holder was in the example.  I put "1"
in there.

where to find the latest version of the manual.  I updated the
note to have more detailed information on finding current,
alternate, and latest versions of the manual based on YP
releases.

76bff7e67a ref-manual: Removed package-depends.dot and pn-depends.dot
The generated package-depends.dot and pn-depends.dot stuff
contains partial data about the taskgraph and tends to
confuse users.  Richard Purdie suggested removing these from
bitbake/lib/bb/cooker.py.  I have removed the references to
them in the "Viewing Dependencies Between Recipes and Tasks"
section of the ref-manual.

value is inclusive.
