184adcbc32 dev-manual/building: document the initramfs-framework recipe
[ YOCTO #14747 ]

Adding a initramfs is a common task, and the way oe-core offers to do so
is by using the initramfs-framework recipe and companion modules. There
was already documentation on adding an initramfs but the documentation
was lacking details on this framework. Add it before the multiconfig
section because it is a bit more important IMO.

3f782b6e45 ref-manual/packages: move ptest section to the test-manual
[ YOCTO #15106 ]

It makes more sense to document ptests in the test-manual. Since ptests
are still related to packages, keep a link to ptests from packages.rst
to the test-manual.

47b43a94da dev-manual/bmaptool.rst: simplify and fix instructions
- Remove duplicate instructions

- Detail how to run bmaptool directly if you installed it on your host
  instead of building it through the ``bmaptool-native`` recipe,
  as running "oe-run-native bmaptool-native bmaptool ..." won't work
  in this case.

- Use "chmod a+w" instead of "chmod 666", better advice,
  and only run "chmod" in the option that runs "oe-run-native"

a789e8622a Update the documentation for SRCPV
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.

bc6bd220a0 dev-manual: document how to provide confs from layer.conf
Add a section on providing global level configuration from the
layer.conf file. Since this file is parsed at an earlier stage in the
parsing process, it's not possible to combine bb.utils.contains and
{DISTRO,MACHINE}_FEATURES to conditionally set some configurations.

This patch documents:

- First that this file can be used for providing such configuration.
- Then demonstrate how to conditionally provide them, using a technique
  that is currently used in meta-virtualization
  (https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-virtualization/tree/conf/layer.conf#n50).

c24e3b9f67 dev-manual: Discourage the use of SRC_URI[md5sum]
SRC_URI[md5sum] has been deprecated for a long time. Discourage its use
by removing it from examples and note that it should be replaced by
SRC_URI[sha256sum] when updating recipes.

Also mention that bitbake supports other checksums, though they are not
commonly used.

104899f390 dev-manual: layers: Add notes about layer.conf
As discussed before with Richard Purdie, the code supports this but the documentation does not.
Developers in general will not notice this or focus on it because they do not mess with the
layer.conf template file, but in my opinion I think more details can help.

ced8fd6ea9 dev-manual: fix testimage usage instructions
The proper way to inherit the testimage class is now

IMAGE_CLASSES += "testimage"

so change lines with 'INHERIT += "testimage"' to match. This makes the
dev-manual consistent with the migration guide, which already specifies
that the old way causes an error.

81ba04522e dev-manual: disk-space: improve wording for obsolete sstate cache files
Replace "duplicate" by "obsolete", more appropriate.
"duplicate" probably comes from the "--remove-duplicated"

Improve other sentences too.
