Added the fact that this variable is really optional. If you
don't use it then you are setting up a package feed URI that
will include all supported arcchitectures for the package.
Using it means you are setting up specific URIs for specific
architectures.
Added a "Tip" note box to show how you can use the variable
to whitelist architectures.

as was prior releases. Manual changes were as follows:
dev-manual: "Sharing Files Between Recipes" - Wordings were changed
to support the new functionality.
ref-manual: do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task added to the list of
tasks described in "Configuration and Compilation".
ref-manual: Extensive re-write of the "staging.bbclass" section.
ref-manual: Added a section to the build structure for
build/tmp/work/tunearch/recipename/version/. This section breaks
down the recipe-specific subdirectories used to create (stage)
the sysroot.
ref-manual: New section (entry) for the do_prepare_recipe_sysroot

ref-manual: Added a variable glossary description for the
SSTATE_SCAN_FILES variable.
In addition to these changes, I sprinkled in a liberal amount

missing: COPYLEFT_PN_INCLUDE and COPYLEFT_PN_EXCLUDE. I also
added descriptions for these two variables.

We did not document how to create an initramfs image to be included
with a kernel build. Various variables sort of inferred the
knowledge. I created a new section in the "Common Tasks" section
of the dev-manual that describes how to create an initramfs image.
Also, I updated the kernel.bbclass reference section to point back
to the new "how-to" section.
Finally, I also created a bunch of cross-reference links from various
related variables back to the new "how-to" section.

This fix essentially had to document how to add the API
documentation to the standard SDK. The fix required adding a
new appendix to the SDK manual on how to customize that
standard SDK. I could not put just one topic in a new appendix
so I also added a sub-section on how to add indidual packages
to the standard SDK.
Other changes here were the introduction of a new file for the new
appendix, updated the mega-manual.xml file so that it would include
the new chapter when the MM was built. Finally, I added some
cross-referencing to the new appendix from the TOOLCHAIN_HOST_TASK
and TOOLCHAIN_TARGET_TASK variables. And a cross reference from the
distro features section on the api-documentation bullet.

Pointed out that the EXTENDPKGV variable is hard to locate in the
BB manual. Firstly, we don't document that variable in the
BB manual.... maybe we should. For the ref-manual, however, it is
barely referenced in a side example from the dev-manual. So, I
updated the RDEPENDS variable to have a "Tip" box in the area where
it is shown how to use the package version as part of the RDEPENDs
variable.
