documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Updated packages section

Split the instructions for getting the packages needed for Yocto
into sections that specifically support Ubuntu, Fedora, and openSUSE.
Also, added a couple packages to openSUSE.  I did not implement a
suggested change to include a note indicating future support of
the dash shell since it probably is not good policy to document plans
as they change.
