The YAML variables for the host dependencies are updated by hand and
actually only used inside code blocks.
Let's migrate all instructions into separate shell scripts that are then
literalinclude'd into the Sphinx documentation.
This allows a few things:
- ability to run shellcheck on the scripts if we ever want to
- manually calling the appropriate script from a supported distro to
build stuff (distro or bitbake/yocto stuff)
- use this script to create containers to do CI of documentation on
different distros, to make sure our instructions are all up to date,

devtool is not directly tied to the Extensible SDK anymore, and
instructions in there can be split and added to the development manual.
This patch is a simple bulk move, except for the following:
- Intro added to the devtool.rst document (mostly copy-pasted from the
devtool quick reference in the ref-manual).
- Figures renamed to remove "sdk-" from filenames.
- References to sdk-manual/extensible replaced by dev-manual/devtool.

the current documentation was clear on that, it felt needed to add a

runtime dependencies, especially for people new to the project.
Add a warning block below the existing deploy-target documentation.
Also, link to the Overview and Concepts page, which explains it
thoroughly.

We no longer provide this feature, so remove documentation for it. In
most cases, we can replace occurrences of "debug-tweaks" by
"allow-empty-password empty-root-password allow-root-login
post-install-logging" to achieve what this feature previously enabled.
Subtle, but the default local.conf does not include
post-install-logging, so in parts where there is mention of the default
local.conf file, adjust the documentation to only mention the first
three above.
In the intro manual, instead of providing instructions that replace
EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES entirely, provide ones that append

The variable SRCPV is deprecated since 4.3. Instead of including SRCPV
in PV, including the sign "+" is enough for bitbake to add the source
control information to PKGV during the packaging phase.
Update the documentation for SRCPV and the places where it was used.
When instructions previously referred to SRCPV, replace by mentioning to
include "+" in the assignment.
In most examples, "+git" is added to PV as it is the most popular SCM.
Simply adding "+" is also possible, although it is better practice to
include the SCM name, so give that example.
Update the gcompat example with l3afpad as it didn't include "+git" in
its PV definition anymore.

bd6265ca323fac547a197bb516dc4a9ef3897508 ("doc: Makefile: add support

The initial list of dependencies was made for Ubuntu/Debian, and the
packages were translated for the other distros using pkgs.org.
Add them separately from the rest of the dependencies as they pull a
_lot_ of additional dependencies (for LaTeX).
Move the texlive-fncychap documentation dependency to the PDF specific
dependency.
Notes:
- Fedora/OpenSUSE do not have the "lang-all" texlive collection, so
install all available languages.
- AlmaLinux does not seem to provide texlive-collection-fontsextra,
texlive-collection-lang*, and texlive-collection-latexextra, so add a

it is forbidden when writing tests that will run on the autobuilders

Reword the documentation to clearly discourage, provide a safe alternative

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.
