dev-manual: Added notes about creating your own distro

Browse Source 
Added a couple of notes to point out the ease of creating your
own distro and not just relying on a Poky distribution.  One
note is at the very beginning of the manual and mentions
Angstrom as an example of a distro based on the YP.  The
other note is at the beginning of the second chapter.

(From yocto-docs rev: 1525a5e34c615cbfd25aeb12cc7a27ef95b51eab)

By default, using the Yocto Project creates a Poky distribution.
However, you can create your own distribution by providing key

While the Yocto Project does not provide a strict testing framework,
it does provide or generate for you artifacts that let you perform target-level and
emulated testing and debugging.
