Ioan-Adrian Ratiu ad42d8e4d9 isoimage-isohybrid: don't include cpio in cpio image
Because the find | cpio processes execute in parallel connected via
the pipe, and the cpio outputs in the same dir find searches for
source files, the cpio will be included in itself partially, depending
on how fast the build machine creates the cpio file before cpio
gobbles it up.

This bloats the ISO image, though compression reduces the .iso file size,
once the kernel decompresses the cpio image and boots it live, it uses
up to double the RAM memory.

Fix this by creating the initrd.cpio file directly inside cr_workdir.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
