documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: updated the filesystem 

Updated the downloading the filesystem section to have an inclusive list
of image profiles and a reference to more information on that.  Also
included more explanation of the two types of image tarballs.

<title>Downloading the Filesystem</title>
<para>
The filesystem image has two forms.
One form is an <filename>ext3</filename> filesystem image.
The other form is a tarball of the filesystem and is booted using user-space NFS.
Here are the respective forms:
The filesystem image has two tarball forms: <filename>ext3</filename> and
<filename>tar</filename>.
You must use the <filename>ext3</filename> form when booting an image using the
QEMU emulator.
The <filename>tar</filename> form can be flattened out in your host development system
and used for Yocto Project build purposes.
