2023-04-22release-notes-4.2: add release notesyocto-4.2mickledore-4.2Paul Eggleton
Add new features, upgrades, CVEs, contributors and license changes based upon combing through the commits in the release. I haven't yet noted any known issues. Note: I had to add the upgrades list from the commits rather than from the layer index this time (as the branch comparison feature is unfortunately broken there at the moment), thus the format is a little different.

2023-04-22dev/ref-manual: Document INIT_MANAGERPaul Eggleton
The INIT_MANAGER variable was added in 3.0 but it seems we didn't get around to documenting it yet. I have added a variable glossary entry and made the basic adjustment of the "Using systemd Exclusively" section in the dev manual, however I think the latter section still needs work.

2023-04-22ref-manual: move Initramfs entry from variables to termsPaul Eggleton
It looks like this was accidentally added to the variable glossary instead of the terms list, so move it to the latter. Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton <bluelightning@bluelightning.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

2023-04-22ref-manual: add missing QA checks from previous releasesPaul Eggleton
This section needs to be kept in sync with the "QA Error and Warning Messages" section (qa-checks.rst) - this is the other direction that tells folks what all of the values in WARN_QA / ERROR_QA are intended to do. Add the ones that we missed adding here for previous releases, and also use a proper reference for the buildhistory class in the entry for version-going-backwards.

2023-04-22migration-guides: Add coverage of addpylib directivePaul Eggleton
To complement what I am adding to the BitBake reference manual, add a section in the 4.2 migration guide, a reference in the structure section of the reference manual (where we talk about meta/lib) and adjust the release notes item to be a little more concise.

2023-04-22ref-manual: update for IMAGE_MACHINE_SUFFIX additionPaul Eggleton
IMAGE_MACHINE_SUFFIX is a new variable in 4.2, and there were some associated changes to how IMAGE_NAME, IMAGE_LINK_NAME, INITRAMFS_IMAGE_NAME and KERNEL_ARTIFACT_NAME are set by default. As a result, instead of repeating how KERNEL_ARTIFACT_NAME is set by default, let's just direct people to the entry for that variable so we only have to update one place. At the same time I noticed INITRAMFS_IMAGE_NAME was not documented at all, so add that in.
