Let's not maintain manually which tag should be locally available before
asking the user to run git fetch --tags. Instead, let's check for the
latest release first tag (e.g. for Kirkstone, 4.0 even though 4.0.1 is
already out).

Honister 3.4.4 is the last release of the series and the series is now

The explanations which precede and follow are sufficient.
The removed text seemed to suggest to use conf/site.conf to specify
the location of another conf/site.conf file.
Another issue was that the way to override conf/site.conf settings
through conf/local.conf was described before explaining that
conf/site.conf is processed before conf/local.conf.

Remove the reference to the GPL license, unnecessary
in this part of the manual and pointing to a wrong
link (LGPL instead of GPL).
Anyway, we have no authority to say that the MIT license
is compatible with the GPL.
Also provide details about the MIT license through Wikipedia,
instead of just the raw license text with no explanations
through opensource.org.

If I am not mistaken, the only kernel recipe to have a new PACKAGECONFIG
option is linux-yocto-dev, in commit 1bac831fba
"linux-yocto-dev: introduce dt-validation PACKAGECONFIG".
Therefore, let's replace (kernel) by the one kernel recipe that has this
change.

extlinks captions support using %s substitution but only from sphinx 4.0
onwards.
c.f. https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/extensions/extlinks.html#confval-extlinks
Weirdly enough, on older sphinx versions, the caption is just a prefix
to the actual text passed to the extlink. Therefore, in that specific
case, CVE- or CVE-%s are identical in meaning for sphinx >=4.0 and since
only CVE- caption works on sphinx <4.0, let's go with CVE- caption
prefix.
