manuals: document VSCode extension

2024-01-24T14:04:56+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]

2023-12-21T16:14:00+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.

dev-manual: layers: Add notes about layer.conf

2023-10-25T14:45:51+00:00

As discussed before with Richard Purdie, the code supports this but the documentation does not. Developers in general will not notice this or focus on it because they do not mess with the layer.conf template file, but in my opinion I think more details can help.
