Fix dead links that use the DISTRO macro

2025-05-25T11:37:57+00:00

After introducing the DISTRO_LATEST_TAG and DISTRO_REL_LATEST_TAG macros, use them in links that currently use DISTRO/DISTRO_REL_TAG. When building for the tip of a branch, this will replace the current A.B.999 in links to the latest existing tag. The links were found across the documentation by running 'grep -r "http.*5\.2\.999"' inside the _build/html output after building the docs.

ref-manual/variables.rst: HOST_CC_ARCH: fix wrong SDK reference

2025-05-25T11:37:57+00:00

When building for nativesdk recipes, HOST_CC_ARCH equals SDK_CC_ARCH, not BUILDSDK_CC_ARCH which doesn't exist.

ref-manual/variables.rst: add missing documentation for BUILD_* variables

2025-05-25T11:37:57+00:00

These toolchain variables are used in a native context. Some of the BUILD_* variables missed documentation. Also, some of the base commands were also not there so document them. Some of existing BUILD_* variable documentation were missing the note about their usage in a native context, so add it too so that all BUILD_* variables are documented the same way.
