8ccdf6df3c dev-manual: update custom distribution section
In keeping with the addition of the motd message pointing out that
the poky DISTRO is a reference distribution, adjust the opening of the
Creating Your Own Distribution section to match. Additionally, add a
section on the end pointing out what users need to consider if they just
take a copy of the poky distribution and modify it.

bba5a688ea dev-manual: update reference to sstate-cache-management script

all references to suit.

Since we are not in charge of debian's package naming policy, any
references that relate to debian package(s) will stay as "bmap-tools".

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.

as the current Toaster references.

1d954e7e25 dev-manual: remove unsupported :term: markup inside markup
":term:`Initramfs`" in bold text appears verbatim (no link is created).

The term link is present elsewhere in the text so remove the extra
markup.

0c8b5d0e69 contributor guide: call section "Reporting a defect"
Instead of "Submitting a defect".

We all write bugs, and nobody needs documentation
support for doing so!

59256bc92b dev-manual: wic.rst: Update native tools build command
Requirements list seems to be outdated. It is not possible to follow
instructions for Raw Mode as not all of the native tools are available.
All wic dependencies are gathered under wic-tools package. Some commands
in the instruction already use wic-tools native sysroot, but this
dependency is not specified in the requirements.
Update the command for building native tools to use wic-tools instead
of the seperate packages.
