documentation: scrubbed out 'glibc' and replaced with 'eglibc'

Several manuals and areas were still referring to 'glibc' as the
GNU version of the Unix statndrd C library.  We do not support this
any longer and now use 'eglibc' to build with.  Notable changes were
in the required packages area of the QS manual.  I also added a
bit in the reference guide saying how this release does not use
'glibc' to build with but rather 'eglibc'.
