Minimum Git, tar, Python and gcc versions are specified in quite a few different places. Let's add some variables for these so there's no chance of missing one if they're updated in future. Additionally, for hardknott the minimum Python version is 3.6 so set that as the value for Python.

2021-04-09docs: replace anchor linksQuentin Schulz
Anchor links are treated by Sphinx as external links and are not checked during build, meaning it is impossible to know if a link becomes broken or not. As a matter of fact, most of the anchor links replaced in this commit were actually broken. The README now states that anchor links are forbidden so that there's no need to go through such a change later on.

2021-03-23Do not assume working from $HOMEMichael Opdenacker
In the "Yocto Project Quick Build" instructions (https://docs.yoctoproject.org/brief-yoctoprojectqs/index.html#) there is an inconsistency that impacts several documents... People are first instructed to clone the poky git repository, but not mentioning from which directory. Then, it's consistent to instruct people to run "cd poky/". However, later in the instructions, readers are instructed to run "cd ~/poky", which assumes that cloning poky was done from the home directory. Many other places in the documentation make such an assumption. This change fixes this, and makes no assumption on where people have chosen to store their data, in particular where they cloned the "poky" repository. This also fixes a few whitespace issues.
