- Remove the redundant FAQ entry about this topic,
already covered in a specific section of the Development Tasks manual
- Document the TOOLCHAIN_LOCATION variable
- Expand both the Development Tasks manual and
the TCMODE variable description using details from the FAQ entry.
- Mention the "meta-arm-toolchain" layer too.

Fixing double colons appearing alone on a line, while
they could be put at the end of the previous line.
Sometimes placing a note after the quoted text
to avoid such a situation. It's more natural too
not to have a note between the introduction text
and the quoted section.

This makes the Yocto Project manual variable list and index more useful,
not missing any potentially useful variable.
The price to pay is that a reference to such variables now has to go through
the intermediate reference in the Yocto Project variable list, instead
of going straight to the Bitbake manual.

A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage,
and can have section title conflicts.
So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all
its constituents are moved up one level.
You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual.

Nothing wrong with this word, but instances of "inherit"

Replace instances of "Build Directory" and "build directory"
(when applicable) by :term:`Build Directory` as already
done in most places.
Doing this, fix the indentation of the paragraphs with
this term.

Add a note to the COMPLEMENTARY_GLOB variable glossary entry mentioning
that recommends aren't installed (since this seems to be the only place
that complementary package installation is really discussed). Also turn
the paragraph about globbing into a regular paragraph as I don't think
it should be called out in a note block.

* Make reference to meta/classes* instead of just meta/classes
* Update each reference to the path where the class has moved
* Add a brief explanation to the classes reference explaining the split
* Add a note to INHERIT, INHERIT_DISTRO, IMAGE_CLASSES and USER_CLASSES
variable glossary entries mentioning where the specified classes must
be located. I contemplated adding the same note to PACKAGE_CLASSES
but decided against it, as it has a very specific usage and such a
note might distract from the narrative of that entry.
* Also trim the IMAGE_CLASSES entry which was quite outdated.
* INHERIT += no longer works with testimage so drop the note about that
