yocto-project-qs, poky.ent: Misc fixes in the Quick Start:
I did the following to the yocto-project-qs.xml file: * I integrated some cross-referencing to the BitBake User Manual in a few spots. * I fixed a few grammar items. * I also noted the super user system uses four cores. I did the following to poky.ent: * Added a new variable for links into the BitBake User Manual. Variable is YOCTO_DOCS_BB_URL. (From yocto-docs rev: 3eba14c0dc9e71dfcf967d76e4525b26ac02c9c2) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
