A new figure was introduced so the Makefile had to be adjusted
to include that figure. The figure resides in the figures

The section on the devtool workflow in the dev-manual was 99%
identical to what was in the sdk-manual. I have moved the
workflow procedure from the old "Model" chapter of the dev-manual
to be merged with what was in the sdk-manual. In truth, the
only things added were a note about devtool not being exclusive
to SDK development.
The result of moving (deleting) this section was that the "model"
chapter of the dev-manual went away. The devtool stuff, Quilt,
devshell, and python shell are all out now and there is no
chapter left. So, mega-manual had to be adjusted to not pull that
chapter in when building the dev-manual. I had to delete three
figures that were used in the flow. The figures were already
replicated in the sdk-manual. The figures were deleted from the
figures folder of both the dev-manual and the mega-manual.
I had to make sure all references to the old devtool stuf in the
YP doc set were adjusted.

The "Yocto Project Source Repositories" section is purely conceptual
and thus does not belong in the reconstituted dev-manual, which is
converting to a "how-to" manual. I have moved this section to the
ref-manual under "The Yocto Project Development Environment" section.
Moving the section affected several things. Three figures that where
in the dev-manual were copied and moved to the figures folder of the
ref-manual. This required deleting them from the dev-manual and
adding them to the ref-manual.
The makefile had to be edited to move those figures into the ref-manual
and delete them from the latest version of the dev-manual in order for
the tarball of files to be correct when the manuals are made.
Links to anchors within the moved section had to be fixed in various
manuals. Links to the main section "id" had to be fixed to point
to the ref-manual manual.

The ref-manual needs expansion for the old "closer-look" chapter.
This chapter previously held a detailed look at what happens when
a user uses the YP to develop something. Now, the chapter needs
to also contain YP development environment concepts (e.g. open-
source philosophy, etc.), which are coming from the dev-manual.
Because of this, I renamed the "closer-look.xml" chapter to be
"ref-development-environment.xml". I also renamed the larger
section that was formerly the entire chapter into its own section
named "Development Concepts".
Both these changes caused a few links to break. I fixed all the
links from within the various manuals so they would find appropriate
targets.
I did some re-writing for introductory material to introduce the new
chapter and the section on "Development Concepts".
A new file ("ref-development-environment.xml") was added by basically
renaming the "closer-look.xml" chapter. And, the tracking for
"closer-look.xml" was deleted.

ref-manual: Extensive re-write of the "staging.bbclass" section.
ref-manual: Added a section to the build structure for
build/tmp/work/tunearch/recipename/version/. This section breaks
down the recipe-specific subdirectories used to create (stage)
the sysroot.
ref-manual: New section (entry) for the do_prepare_recipe_sysroot

SSTATE_SCAN_FILES variable.
In addition to these changes, I sprinkled in a liberal amount

manual that describes append files.
* kernel-dev - Placed the example from the BSP Guide into the

is in a hierarchical directory and not just a simple *.scc

There is a weird and intermittant error that can occur on any given

The error happens during an initial build of an image and indicates
that resources are unavailable. Investigation determines that
resources are available. The combination of the kernel and the
systemd in a distro is causing issues when a distro is upgraded.

The string appeared in the text as "$(INC_PR).0". So, fixed
it to be proper with the curly braces.

The way I had this string was incorrect. I changed it to "openSUSE".

Fixed [YOCTO #10588]
This section was confusing due to the fact that it used an actual
set of IP addresses and image name where they should be clearly
called out as examples. Fixed it.

The "runqemu Ported to Python" section was using past tense
for a note about previous usage patterns being supported. I
changed this to present tense.

These requirements were in place for the ADT, which is gone now.
I have removed the four supported host lists for packages to
support the SDK.

The section that shows how to build images had two examples all
within the same section. It was suggested to place these examples
in their own sub-sections. Good suggestion. I broke them out into
sub-sections titled appropriately.

The example that writes the image to bootable media did not seem
to work when using 'mkefidisk.sh'. It does work using 'dd'. I changed
the procedure to use 'dd'.

Pointed out that the EXTENDPKGV variable is hard to locate in the
BB manual. Firstly, we don't document that variable in the
BB manual.... maybe we should. For the ref-manual, however, it is
barely referenced in a side example from the dev-manual. So, I
updated the RDEPENDS variable to have a "Tip" box in the area where
it is shown how to use the package version as part of the RDEPENDs
variable.
