Updated the "Task Checksums and Setscene" section to provide a bit
of user information around the bitbake-dumpsigs use that lets a
user examine signatures and inputs that determine if a do_compile
task is indeed supposed to be run.
Added more explanation of how a user can examine signatures used
to determine if a do_compile task is indeed supposed to be run.

sections for other supported fetchers. Changes included the new section,
removal of the bulleted item that mentioned this fetcher as an
"additional" fetcher, and the creation of a new variable in the glossary
named REPODIR.

Just discovered a minor issue in the bitbake manual - under the variable
glossary entry for BBLAYERS_FETCH_DIR we say there's a default value of
${COREBASE} but that's not actually true in bitbake itself - there's no
default in bitbake, that default is set in OE-Core. We can keep this in the YP
ref manual but in the bitbake manual that sentence should be removed.

examples at the bottom of the section to include that parameter.
Also, made the other two examples consistent.
I also removed the "date" parameter.
Also, updated the "protocol" parameter as well as the "modify"
parameter. For "modify" I removed the reference to "rsh". I
applied a small wording change to the "protocol" parameter.
Finally, I added a new "ssh" parameter.

The package-depends.dot and pn-depends.dot files are inaccurate,
missing out key dependencies such those made via the [depends]
flags. As such they can be misleading to the user.
They mainly exist for historical reasons, coming from a time
before we had task based execution.
This commit removes the two dated file formats and replaces
them with a recipe-depends.dot which is a flattened version
of task-depends.dot.
The old format files are removed if present so that the user
can't get confused about why data might not match between files.
The code is also rewritten to use 'with f: f.write()' syntax as
is more commonly used now. Also update the docs to match the change.
