bebe66feae tree-wide: make the :doc: directive use absolute paths
This makes all :doc: directives use an absolute paths (with the root
directory being documentation/ in the repo).

This is then consistent across the whole source and is easier to review
and move files around, you just need to know where a file is located
relative to documentation/ directory and use that.

This gets rid of paths looking in parent directory with '..' as well as
expecting a file to be in the same directory as the other file it points
to via the :doc: directive.

edd3b0224f dev-manual/building: document the initramfs-framework recipe
[ YOCTO #14747 ]

Adding a initramfs is a common task, and the way oe-core offers to do so
is by using the initramfs-framework recipe and companion modules. There
was already documentation on adding an initramfs but the documentation
was lacking details on this framework. Add it before the multiconfig
section because it is a bit more important IMO.

Try to particularly emphasize that it can be used to find
out why something rebuilds when it shouldn't.

025386d53c manuals: suppress excess use of "following" word
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.

ed6c38e3af manuals: document VSCode extension
The VSCode extension is now officially maintained and published by the
Yocto Project so it should be referenced in the manuals to help users
discover it.

I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking
at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well
as the current Toaster references.

8b1909aa6f manuals: simplify references to classes
Now that .bbclass is removed from class section titles.
We can now have, for example, :ref:`ref-classes-insane`
instead of :ref:`insane <ref-classes-insane>`.

Then, when necessary, rework paragraphs so that they
have lines of even length, not exceeding 80 characters.

945c669138 manuals: split dev-manual/common-tasks.rst
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.
