adt-manual: Updates to de-emphasize opt/poky and include sysroot
Fixes YOCTO #2645
Several changes to make sure that the default toolchain directory
(opt/poky) is understood as the default. I changed some wordings
to call it out as the default. Some examples I left alone as they
used /opt/poky but I clearly indicated that the example was using
the default installation directory.
I also updated the note in the manual that talks about alternatively
building the toolchain installer. Previously, it mentioned two
methods. I have added the third and most significant method that
uses bitbake image -c populate_sdk. This method creates a toolchain
installer that contains the matching sysroot.
