12e61faf30 Add Pican2 support
In order to make Pican 2 work, we :
- add mcp2515.dto to the overlay list
- add a variable to enable it in local.conf
- create a udev rule to mount interface

1803681e84 extra-build-config.md: Update docs as per SDIMG_COMPRESSION removal
Using SDIMG_COMPRESSION variable to choose compression type for
produced images is deprecated. IMAGE_FSTYPES should be used instead.
This patch removes any reference to SDIMG_COMPRESSION variable
within the build documentation.

e8f9a4e8f8 sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass: drop KERNEL_INITRAMFS variable
* use INITRAMFS_SYMLINK_NAME from new kernel-artifact-names.bbclass
  instead of KERNEL_INITRAMFS
* the documentation says that KERNEL_INITRAMFS should be used to
  define extension of initramfs, but in linux-raspberrypi.inc it's
  defined only to 1 or empty based on INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE variable
  and I don't see any code in meta-raspberry or oe-core which would
  use KERNEL_INITRAMFS to actualy name the initramfs artifact to create:
  ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin
  used in classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass
* also fix the assumption that there is -${MACHINE} suffix in:
  ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin
  because that's defined as KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME and some DISTROs
  might use different value
* this depends on oe-core changes which were merged today:
  http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7d0ef0eaa1bfe97015a774c26f5791622e7e8b12
* this is the last piece of previous pull-request:
  https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/pull/159

e9bb7f0c6d Support using u-boot with Image format for raspberrypi3-64
For raspberrypi3-64 we need to use the Image or Image.gz format with u-boot
instead of the legacy uImage format. We also need to issue the 'booti' command
to boot the kernel instead of 'bootm'.

34113350f4 docs: fix alignment of "code blocks"
We provide a lot of variable examples as code blocks in the following
format:

	some text: `Variable`

or
	some test:
	`Variable`

Which is not as pretty as (when converted to html/pdf):

	some text:

		Variable

Converted all and hoppefully this will improve readability a bit.

03976f7ff1 docs: Initial split of README into docs directory
The top-level README document has got pretty unwieldy and so we need to
switch to add some more structure to our documentation. The first step
is to split out sub-sections of the README document into separate files
in a new 'docs' directory.

Whilst splitting up the README, we can also take the opportunity to tidy
things up and fix a couple of typos.
