documentation: Changes to Paul Eggleton's edits for various manuals.
Paul sent me a bunch of minor edits and technical corrections for the ADT, BSP, Development, and YP reference manual. Most changes were taken as he submitted them. However, some formatting conventions were not followed in the commits he made to yocto-docs/paule/docs2. After merging them to my yocto-docs/master branch I fixed some issues. (From yocto-docs rev: 93f4ea2dee976448f623953e801a80d59736450a) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
