overview-manual-concepts: Fix the compiler bootstrap process

Browse Source 
gcc-cross-initial and glibc-inital were removed a while ago and this
flow is incorrect anyway. Fix it to match what happens (adding libgcc
and libgcc-initial which are now important in this context).

(From yocto-docs rev: 047bff2b79c7742abc19d549b78c175dd3b5a8f5)
