Cleared up some old wording that was confusing the build
system with "Poky". Also, added a note at the front of the
manual to be clear that the ADT is distribution-neutral.

Several changes to make sure that the default toolchain directory
(opt/poky) is understood as the default. I changed some wordings
to call it out as the default. Some examples I left alone as they
used /opt/poky but I clearly indicated that the example was using
the default installation directory.
I also updated the note in the manual that talks about alternatively
building the toolchain installer. Previously, it mentioned two
methods. I have added the third and most significant method that
uses bitbake image -c populate_sdk. This method creates a toolchain
installer that contains the matching sysroot.

Hi,
the generation of eclipse help files has been merged from the timo
branch to the master. Since the creation of the timo branch there have
been some changes to the master branch (e.g. new documentation,
renamed documentation).
This patch set does some cleanup for the renamed documentation and
adds eclipse help generation support to the new documentation.
01: Removes the 'the' from the document titles
02..04: Cleanup obsolete artifacts resulting from the merge
05..08: Add eclipse help generation for ref-manual
09..13: Add eclipse help generation for kernel-dev
14..18: Add eclipse help generation for profile-manual
Best regards,
Timo

Two things fixed:
1. A couple examples for setting up a layer.conf file were
using the meta-yocto configuration file as an example.
Turns out this is a bad example because the BBPATH variable
is appended to the LAYERDIR when setting BBPATH rather
than the other way around. That is because meta-yocto
is a distro layer. BSP layers, however, are not distro
layers and are the norm here. So I switched up the way
BBPATH was set and actually called out meta-yocto-bsp
config file as a template.
2. Added a link for the BBPATH variable in the
FILESYSTEM_PERMS_TABLES variable description in the
glossary. Just happened to notice this so I fixed it
