Fixes [YOCTO #4912]
Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux
distributions we support and the required packages among other
items that are tied to a distro. Debian had been missing except
from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test
against.
I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned
now.

Did some word-smithing to work around a false statement that
implied externalsrc.bbclass needed to be inherited on a
recipe-by-recipe basis. This affected the usage section and
the glossary definitions for both EXTERNALSRC and EXTERNALSRC_BUILD.
Also updated the "B" variable description to be more accurate
in the use of the term "Build Directory."

I made sure all the usage information for this class is in this
section and not in the ref-manual. Changes involved using
EXTERNALSRC and EXTERNALSRC_BUILD now to select the source
and build directories.

I made some assumptions that the supporting filenames would
be changed to reflect the new name. If they do not, I will
fix them.
