Scott Rifenbark ae06e04cd2 documentation: Created new "Getting Started" manual.
Creation involved removing the overview-manual and replacing it
with the getting-started manual.  All links to the string
"&YOCTO_DOCS_OVERVIEW_URL" had to be replaced with
"&YOCTO_DOCS_GS_URL" across the entire YP manual set.  I renamed
files used to create the manual with prefixes suited for the
new manual name, which is "Getting Started With Yocto Project".

The style sheet for the new manual needed updating to display the
new .PNG image for the title page.  The mega-manual file had to
be updated to include the files.  The mega-manual.sed file had
to be updated to include the new manual and not use the overview
manual.

<p>
Files that have the <code class="filename">.bb</code> suffix are
"recipes" files.
In general, a recipe contains information about a single piece
of software.
This information includes the location from which to download
the unaltered source, any source patches to be applied to that
source (if needed), which special configuration options to
apply, how to compile the source files, and how to package the
compiled output.
</p>
<p>
The term "package" is sometimes used to refer to recipes.
However, since the word "package" is used for the packaged
output from the OpenEmbedded build system (i.e.
<code class="filename">.ipk</code> or <code class="filename">.deb</code> files),
this document avoids using the term "package" when referring
to recipes.
