8242bd30de migration-guides: Add coverage of addpylib directive
To complement what I am adding to the BitBake reference manual, add a
section in the 4.2 migration guide, a reference in the structure section
of the reference manual (where we talk about meta/lib) and adjust the
release notes item to be a little more concise.

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.

b44fbe5b1b manuals: use references to the "Build Directory" term
Replace instances of "Build Directory" and "build directory"
(when applicable) by :term:`Build Directory` as already
done in most places.

Doing this, fix the indentation of the paragraphs with
this term.

b1d1777865 Update documentation for classes split
* Make reference to meta/classes* instead of just meta/classes
* Update each reference to the path where the class has moved
* Add a brief explanation to the classes reference explaining the split
* Add a note to INHERIT, INHERIT_DISTRO, IMAGE_CLASSES and USER_CLASSES
  variable glossary entries mentioning where the specified classes must
  be located. I contemplated adding the same note to PACKAGE_CLASSES
  but decided against it, as it has a very specific usage and such a
  note might distract from the narrative of that entry.
* Also trim the IMAGE_CLASSES entry which was quite outdated.
* INHERIT += no longer works with testimage so drop the note about that

d9adf28c10 manuals: replace hyphens with em dashes
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.

- Simplify references to class sections, by replacing references such as
  :ref:`image.bbclass <ref-classes-image>`
  by
  :ref:`ref-classes-image`

  That's equivalent, because the class sections always called <class>.bbclass

- Adding references to class sections, by replacing strings such as
  ``image.bbclass``
  by
  :ref:`ref-classes-image`

- Simplifying a few class section links

7d3f57cfd2 docs: replace `FOO by :term:FOO` where possible
If a variable has a glossary entry and some rST files write about those
variables, it's better to point to the glossary entry instead of just
highlighting it by surrounding it with two tick quotes.

This was automated by the following python script:
"""
import re
from pathlib import Path

with open('objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f:
    objects = f.readlines()

with open('bitbake-objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f:
    objects = objects + f.readlines()

re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([A-Z_0-9]*)')
terms = []

for obj in objects:
    match = re_term.search(obj)
    if match and match.group(1):
        terms.append(match.group(1))

for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'):
    with open(rst, 'r') as f:
        content = "".joing(f.readlines())
    for term in terms:
        content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s*[~-]+)'.format(term), r':term:`\1`', content)

    with open(rst, 'w') as f:
        f.write(content)
"""
