Fixes YOCTO #4519
I have added a note after the list of supported Linux distros
that states there might be problems on a given distro when
using YP. I cited the CentOS 6.4 example for this 4519
bug.

First draft of this new section. It included a figure so the
figure had to be added to the "figures" folder of the
mega-manual.
New section introduces concepts behind the types of cross-toolchains
YP develops through user commands that build images and build the
relocatable SDK.

The URL naming convention for the YP Release Notes has changed.
It now takes the following form:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yoctoproject-15-poky-1000
The above is an example for YP Release 1.5 and poky release 10.0.0.
I have set up three new variables in the poky.ent file to somewhat
automate the links in the docs to point to the location of a given
set of release notes:
1. DISTRO_COMPRESSED - set to the DISTRO string with no period
(e.g 15 for 1.5).
2. POKYVERSION_COMPRESSED - set to the poky version with no
periods (e.g. 1000 for 10.0.0).
3. YOCTO_RELEASE_NOTES - set to the full-blown release note
URL.
I made two changes to existing links for the Release Notes. One
was in the dev-manual and one was in the ref-manual.

There were several typos, inacurracies for crown bay code,
out-dated kernel usage example, etc.
One change I had to make that was related was to fix two cross-reference
links to a re-named section. These links were the changes in the
FAQ chapter of the ref-manual.

Release 1.4 requires the user to create an append file to the
new recipe init-ifupdown if they want to create their own
custom /etc/network/interfaces file. Previously, they needed
to append the netbase recipe.
Changes needed in the migration section of the ref-manual as
well as the exmaple used in the bsp-guide.

Added some more clarity about how this variable works and the
implications for using the default setting from the base.bbclass
file. Namely, if you are going to have the build system look
for files in your layer and your layer uses an append file,
then you need to also use the FILESEXTRAPATHS variable to
extend FILESPATHS.

I found it confusing due to not specifically accounting for
.bb and .bbappend files. I added some wording to clearly
specify use given the two types of "recipes". Specifically,
if you are going to use a SRC_URI statment from an append
file, the user really should be aware that they will need
to extend the FILESPATH variable by also using FILESEXTRAPATHS
from within that append file.
