adt-manual, ref-manual: Cross-toolchain details added. New class also.

In the adt-manual in the "Optionally Building a Toolchain Installer"
setion, I added some basic advantage information for building a
toolchain installer using bitbake image -c populate_sdk.

In the ref-manual, I added cross-referencing to this basic information
in several strategic areas: "SDK Generation", the populate_sdk class
reference section, the populate_sdk_* class reference section, and the
"Cross-Development Toolchain Generation" sections.

Finally, I also put in documentation for a new class called
autotools-brokensep.

                 this tool
                 produces executable code that runs on the target device.
+                Only one cross-canadian compiler is produced per architecture
+                since they can be targeted at different processor optimizations
+                using configurations passed to the compiler through the
+                compile commands.
+                This saves the need to have multiple compilers present and
+                hence reduces the size of the toolchains.
