The original QS (yocto-project-qs) has been retired for the YP
sumo (2.5) release. The manual has been replaced with the
brief, two-page quick build document (brief-yoctoprojectqs).
I needed to create a new title figure for the manual to include
as part of the mega-manual (bypqs-title.png). The figure was
added to the figures folder of both the bried-yoctoprojectqs
and mega-manual book folders. I also removed the old
ypqs-title.png file that was used for the original QS.
Updated the stylesheet doc for the brief build to include a
style using the new title .PNG file.
Updated the mega-manual.xml file to include the brief doc and
exclude the original QS.

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.

of the manual. Many times the user is oblivious of this fact
and is trying to use a version of the docs that don't come close
to matching the version of the YP.

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.
