Fix dead links that use the DISTRO macro

2025-05-02T15:12:41+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.

poky.yaml: introduce DISTRO_LATEST_TAG

2025-05-02T15:12:41+00:00

Introduce the DISTRO_LATEST_TAG macro, which should always point to the latest existing tag in the documentation, unlike DISTRO which may point to A.B.999 to represent the tip of a branch. This variable is needed to fix dead links in the documentation that currently use the DISTRO macro. Also, make DISTRO_REL_TAG use the DISTRO macro directly, to avoid repetition, and add a DISTRO_REL_LATEST_TAG macro that has the same role as DISTRO_LATEST_TAG but with "yocto-" prepended to it. In set_versions.py, run the "git describe --abbrev=0 --tags --match='yocto-*'" command to get the latest existing tag on the currently checked out commit. Fallback to ourversion in case we didn't find any.
