dev-manual: bmaptool: rename

2024-03-06T16:54:54+00:00

What was previously known variously as Bmaptool, bmaptools, bmap-tool, and/or bmap-tools has been updated to the singular name: bmaptool. Update all references to suit. Since we are not in charge of debian's package naming policy, any references that relate to debian package(s) will stay as "bmap-tools".

manuals: document VIRTUAL-RUNTIME variables

2024-03-06T16:54:54+00:00

Document the convention to use variables prefixed by VIRTUAL_RUNTIME. Add references to the new term where possible. Another reason is that such variables are recommended in a warning issued by meta/classes-global/insane.bbclass (From yocto-docs rev: 11e1ba97edac979868f199e43c1004db6678044c) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Reported-by: Tim Orling Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: suppress excess use of "following" word

2024-02-24T16:13:28+00:00

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are" by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural. In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx" by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at the end of the sentence. In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when it's redundant with the preceding title.

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.
