4553386396 ref-manual/variables.rst: add missing documentation for BUILD_* variables
These toolchain variables are used in a native context. Some of the
BUILD_* variables missed documentation. Also, some of the base commands
were also not there so document them.

Some of existing BUILD_* variable documentation were missing the note
about their usage in a native context, so add it too so that all BUILD_*
variables are documented the same way.

It makes more sense to document ptests in the test-manual. Since ptests
are still related to packages, keep a link to ptests from packages.rst
to the test-manual.

843c4a8de7 SSTATE_MIRRORS/SOURCE_MIRROR_URL: add instructions for mirror authentication
[ YOCTO #15218 ]

There are different ways of configuring the build host when
authentication to a mirror (SSTATE_MIRRORS or SOURCE_MIRROR_URL) is
required.

Document these methods, and begin with the preferred approach which is
to edit ~/.netrc appropriately. When that is not possible, specifying
the credentials from the URL is also possible, so document it as well.

e82dc2ad3c Update the documentation for SRCPV
The variable SRCPV is deprecated since 4.3. Instead of including SRCPV
in PV, including the sign "+" is enough for bitbake to add the source
control information to PKGV during the packaging phase.

Update the documentation for SRCPV and the places where it was used.
When instructions previously referred to SRCPV, replace by mentioning to
include "+" in the assignment.

In most examples, "+git" is added to PV as it is the most popular SCM.
Simply adding "+" is also possible, although it is better practice to
include the SCM name, so give that example.

Update the gcompat example with l3afpad as it didn't include "+git" in
its PV definition anymore.

The SDKPATH variable seems mistakenly identified as the
default path where the SDK will be installed by the generated
installation script, unless option '-d' or a manual input
overrides this default.

The intended variable is SDKPATHINSTALL. SDKPATH indicates
where the SDK is being composed and built.

The definitions have been added/updated.

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.
