* dev-manual, ref-manual: Image format implementation changesScott Rifenbark2017-09-226-53/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently a number of changes have happened on the implementation side of some image formats, and a few have been renamed. The u-boot image signing code is now always available and no longer in a stand-alone file. The vmdk/mdi/qcow2 images have been removed and are now just a conversion type that is applied to wic images.

* dev-manual: Replaced release names and numbers with variablesScott Rifenbark2017-09-221-17/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | In several examples, hardcoded versions of release names and versions were being used. I updated to use variables from poky.ent so that examples would use most recent release.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #11968] Purged all occurrences of the "oe-init-build-env-memres" script from the YP documentation set. Occurrences in a lot of places. The BBSERVER variable was also impacted and had to have the definition updated.

* ref-manual: Added "N" category to glossaryScott Rifenbark2017-09-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Discovered this item in the front of the glossary was commented out and not showing up so the user did not have the option to click on "N" to quickly get to the "N" entries, which did exist and show up. Uncommented it and put the proper beginning "N" variable in as the start.
