5b75b5cbcf manuals: replace hyphens with em dashes
Fix some hyphens being improperly used as em dashes.
See https://www.grammarly.com/blog/hyphens-and-dashes/

Using em dashes may also allow Sphinx to hyphenate
and break lines in the best way.

Note that the first character after an em dash not
supposed to be capitalized, unless a specific
rule applies, typically when what follows is a proper noun.

Fix a few misuses of parentheses in following text.

The intended variable is SDKPATHINSTALL. SDKPATH indicates

59b33ce497 ref-manual: tasks: do_cleanall: recommend using '-f' instead
do_cleanall can produce failures when used in legitimate cases, such as
with recipe variants (foo and foo-native) or a shared DL_DIR. This is why
it is forbidden when writing tests that will run on the autobuilders
(https://docs.yoctoproject.org/test-manual/intro.html?highlight=cleanall#considerations-when-writing-tests).

Reword the documentation to clearly discourage, provide a safe alternative
(bitbake -f -c fetch), and the rationale with an example.

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are"
by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural.

In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"
by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at
the end of the sentence.

In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when
it's redundant with the preceding title.

955796ad7e ref-manual: variables: provide no-match example for COMPATIBLE_MACHINE
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.

0f23056836 ref-manual: Fix PACKAGECONFIG term and add an example
PACKAGECONFIG's first and second flag value will be added to PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS
and then it will be added to the appropriate variable (EXTRA_OECMAKE, or ...)
So we need to only mention PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS and it will lead to other variables.

I added a custom example that can help understanding very well PACKAGECONFIG.

6fd2902f05 dev/ref-manual: Document INIT_MANAGER
The INIT_MANAGER variable was added in 3.0 but it seems we didn't get
around to documenting it yet. I have added a variable glossary entry and
made the basic adjustment of the "Using systemd Exclusively" section in
the dev manual, however I think the latter section still needs work.
