manuals: document VSCode extension

2024-01-12T11:34:05+00:00

The VSCode extension is now officially maintained and published by the Yocto Project so it should be referenced in the manuals to help users discover it. I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well as the current Toaster references.

dev-manual: Discourage the use of SRC_URI[md5sum]

2023-12-18T13:18:55+00:00

SRC_URI[md5sum] has been deprecated for a long time. Discourage its use by removing it from examples and note that it should be replaced by SRC_URI[sha256sum] when updating recipes. Also mention that bitbake supports other checksums, though they are not commonly used.
