* concepts-manual, dev-manual: Moved the virtual providers to dev-manualScott Rifenbark2018-03-032-63/+125
| | | | | | | | | | This topic was deemed unfit for concepts so I moved it to the dev-manual and rewrote it to be "Using Virtual Providers".

* dev-manual, concepts-manual: Moved x32 sectionScott Rifenbark2018-03-032-71/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I had split up the section on x32 into a concept piece and a "how-to" piece earlier in order to satisfy outside pressure to isolate all "how-to" stuff in the dev-manual. Doing this put a "conceptual" blurb about x32 in the new concepts-manual. It has been decided that x32 is not a concept. It really does not fit into the ref-manual either. So, I have re-combined the intro blurb of the x32 stuff back as the beginning piece of the "Usingt x32 psABI" section in the dev-manual.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I converted the Yocto Project Overview Manual to the Getting Started With Yocto Project Manual, I updated the strings for references from "&YOCTO_DOCS_OVERVIEW_URL" TO "&YOCTO_DOCS_GS_URL". Unfortunately, I did it with a global command that did not take into account the text the might follow the link by saying "see such-and-such section in the Yocto Project Overview Manual." So, I had to hand fix these. Additionally, since I have moved a deeper concepts chapter that was in the getting-started manual to a new Yocto Project Concepts chapter, many of those links changed had to really go to the new manual instead. Those were fixed.
