Subject: dev-manual: First draft of new customizing images with features
 section.

I created two sub-sections in the original section.  One
covers how to customize the image by choosing the particular
SSH server and the other has the new information on creating
a read-only root filesystem.

(From yocto-docs rev: a0ce1a2784f991b7c0871cbc0783e32dde37e314)

+                    Another example of customizing your image could be setting 
+                    up a read-only filesystem.
+                    Suppose, for security reasons, you need to disable the 
+                    your target device's root filesystem's write permisions
+                    (i.e. you need a read-only root filesystem).
+                    Or, perhaps you are running the device's operating system
+                    from a read-only storage device.
+                    For either case, you can customize your image for 
+                    that behavior.

+
+                <para>
+                    To create a read-only root filesystem, simply add the 
+                    "read-only-rootfs" feature to your image.
+                    Using either of the following statements in your 
+                    image recipe or from within the 
+                    <filename>local.conf</filename> file found in the Build 
+                    Directory causes the build system to create a

+     IMAGE_FEATURES = "read-only-rootfs"
+     EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "read-only-rootfs"
