documentation: several manuals - Notes and links for filename space issue
Fixes [YOCTO_#3396]
Spaces in file and directory names is an issue for the build
system and throws an error when sourcing the environment
setup script. I added key notes in several areas of the doc
set. I also added some cross-references to the oe-init-build-env
section in some other areas where running the script is discussed.
