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.

- Replacing
:ref:`bitbake:bitbake-user-manual/...`
by :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/...`
Adding "bitbake:" as a prefix is not necessary
as there is no naming conflict between the YP
and the BitBake manuals (all documents are in
"bitbake-user-manual/")
- Explaining the rules in the README file
- When necessary, fixing line length in the modified paragraphs.

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.

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.

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.

Running "devtool edit-recipe -h" produces, in part, the output:
--any-recipe, -a Does nothing (exists for backwards-compatibility)
so it seems of little value to continue referring to it.

Anchor links are treated by Sphinx as external links and are not checked
during build, meaning it is impossible to know if a link becomes broken or
not.
As a matter of fact, most of the anchor links replaced in this commit
were actually broken.
The README now states that anchor links are forbidden so that there's no
need to go through such a change later on.
