2018-03-25kernel-dev: Clean up of "bsp_name" placeholder.Scott Rifenbark
This string is now being presented as "bsp_root_name" in the YP manual set. A BSP name is essentially "meta-bsp_root_name". It was being presented in the manual set as "meta-bsp_name", which is not technically correct.

2018-03-25bsp-guide: Updated BSP terminolgy and BBLAYERS orderingScott Rifenbark
Fixed the way we refer to a BSP name. It is really "meta-<bsp_root_name>" rather than "meta-<bsp_name>". The name is the whole string and not just the root name. Also added a tip on ordering the layers in the BBLAYERS variable in the bblayers.conf file. Order is important.

2018-03-25dev-manual: Cleaned up layer naming terminologyScott Rifenbark
Reality dictates that the YP does not treat layer naming consistently. Layers are talked about as the "meta-whatever" layer and never the "whatever" layer. However, the tooling sometimes appends or uses just the "whatever" part of the layer name. A good example is the meta-yocto-bsp configuration file. All the variables in there use just the root name of a layer's name. In the manuals, I had been distinguishing the layer name as just the "whatever" part sans "meta-". I talked about the convention of using "meta-" in front of layer names, etc. Well, this is confusing in light of how everyone says a layer's name is "meta-whatever". So, I fixed all this up.

2018-03-25documentation: Updated the section on creating a general scriptScott Rifenbark
Split this section into two sections: one for creating the layer using bitbake-layers create-layer and one for adding the layer to bblayers.conf using bitbake-layers add-layer. Needed to update some references in the yocto-project-qs and kernel-dev manuals.

Added the fact that this variable is really optional. If you don't use it then you are setting up a package feed URI that will include all supported arcchitectures for the package. Using it means you are setting up specific URIs for specific architectures. Added a "Tip" note box to show how you can use the variable to whitelist architectures.
