concepts-manual: Added a section on "Layers"

Browse Source 
The section briefly introduces layers but leaves the real
explanation to the section in the getting-started manual,
which this section references.

(From yocto-docs rev: 9b3957a5d7c3a2f6b41ec26205ae31f3b2d05643)

<title>Layers</title>
<para>
Layers are repositories that contain related sets of instructions
that tell the OpenEmbedded build system what to do.
You use different layers to logically separate information in your
build.
You can collaborate, share, and reuse layers.
The Layer Model simultaneously supports collaboration and
customization.
