The yocto-layers script is being deprecated in the 2.4 YP release
and the preferred script is now bitbake-layers. In particular, the
section that talks about creating a general layer was using
yocto-layers create. I have replaced it with bitbake-layers
create-layer command.
The bsp-guide and kernel-dev manual had links that used (in the
case of kernel-dev) and referenced yocto-layers. I had to change
these to reflect using bitbake-layers create-layers.

add value I placed in other areas of the chapter 2. One was a new

about the defconfig file. And a small procedure on how to create
config fragments using the "diffconfig" command was retained.
Links from the dev-manual and the ref-manual were adjusted as well.
