concepts-manual: Updated Image Generation section.
Added wording to note that the rootfs might be compressed
depending on the IMAGE_FSTYPES setting, which would have to
actually do compression. Also, fixed examples of "do_image_type"
and "do_image_ext4" so that there is no "[depends]" as part
of the example.
