2019-01-16dev-manual: Remove True option to getVar callsAndré Draszik
getVar() has been defaulting to expanding by default for a long time (2016), thus remove the True option from getVar() examples with a regex search and replace. Search & replace made using the following command: sed -e 's|\(d\.getVar \?\)( \?\([^,()]*\), \?True)|\1(\2)|g' \ -i $(git grep -E 'getVar ?\( ?([^,()]*), ?True\)' \ | cut -d':' -f1 \ | sort -u) Note that there are are several other examples of getVar() usage which already don't explicitly add the True option, this patch just align some stray remainders.

Rewrote the section on setting up and executing multi-config builds. Broke the section into two sub-sections. One is for the standard information that was there for setting up a multi-config build. A new section was for the cross-build dependencies in multi-config builds. Part of the re-write included creating a new figure that shows the configuration file hierarchy needed for these types of builds. So, new figure added to both the dev-manual and the mega-manual figures directories. Finally, the Makefile needed updated to account for the new figures.
