Applied review edits from Paul Eggleton spanning the entire book. Small areas affected in all chapters except the "Hello World" Appendix.

2014-03-09bitbake: user-manual: Review edits from Richard (second draft)Scott Rifenbark
Applied the comprehensive set of review comments from Richard Purdie. All files affected. One major point here was that the "BitBake Command" chapter was eliminated. This information was folded into various areas of the book. Consequently, the bits including the file for make had to be updated.

2014-03-09bitbake: user-manual: Added "Hello World" Appendix.Scott Rifenbark
I took Bill's chapter and made it into an appendix. I did some re-writing to make it not so much like a getting-started feel, although it still leans way that way for an appendix. The content is not complete. Had to add in a line to the user-manual.xml file so that the new appendix would be part of the book. Had to use a different form of the command in the user-manual-cusomization.xsl file in order to not through a bunch of errors for an unrecognized parameter value. I commented out the existing one.

Changed the title of the chapter to "Syntax and Operators". It was called "Metadata". Removed the bulk the "Checksums (Signatures)" section and the placeholder for "Setscene". These are now in the "Execution" chapter. Created a more appropriate overview blurb to start the chapter.

2014-03-09bitbake: user-manual: Added new chapter to cover BB execution.Scott Rifenbark
This commit added need files, cleaned up bogus links, and adjusted the build file, which is user-manual.xml. The new chapter file is "user-manual-execution.xml". The file has base text from the bitbake section from the "Closer Look" chapter of the YP ref-manual. This means that I had to initially include some figures from that book for now. I am not including them as part of this commit though as they will likely get renamed. I made sure that all links were removed that were specific to the YP ref-manual. Another change was in the user-manual.xml file to include the new chapter as part of the build. Another block of text for the new chapter was the "Running a Task" section from the user-manual-metadata.xml file. Consequently, that section was deleted from the "Metafile" chapter. Another block of text for the new chapter was the "Parsing and Execution" section from the user-manual-metadata.xml file. Consequently, that section was deleted from the "Metafile chapter.
