Rather than repeat informaiton about KERNEL_ARTIFACT_NAME in the many variables that use it, I added a new entry for the variable. This also impacted the descriptions of the variables that were repeating information. I updated those variable descriptions as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rewrote the section on setting up and executing multi-config builds. Broke the section into two sub-sections. One is for the standard information that was there for setting up a multi-config build. A new section was for the cross-build dependencies in multi-config builds. Part of the re-write included creating a new figure that shows the configuration file hierarchy needed for these types of builds. So, new figure added to both the dev-manual and the mega-manual figures directories. Finally, the Makefile needed updated to account for the new figures.
