As suggested in a recent mail thread by Martin Jansa, there are cases in
which QEMU under KVM will crash because of CPU feature incompatibilities
between compiled binaries and the host CPU under which qemu is run.
Although this is hard to fully escape, we should document the issue to
help people work around it. I have taked Martin's suggested patch
and did some rewording for the new section.

The step for getting toaster to create the database schema,
default data, and gather the statically-served files changed.
I updated with the proper steps.

The links to the DATABASES, SECRET_KEY, and STATIC_ROOT
were bad. They were pointing to old dated software. I updated the
links.
Also, added a couple new sections. One is how to start a
Toaster environment without its web server. The other is how
to start a Toaster environment without a build server.

This month and date is always jumping around. I decided to add a
variable so that I only need to to update that when a release date
changes.

Updated the layer-input.png and source-input.png figures.
Had to trim them so they were tighter in the figure. Also,
updated some context in the source-input.png figures.

The "Metadata, Machine Configuratrion, and Policy Configuration"
section discusses the three types of layers fed into the OpenEmbedded
build system workflow figure. I updated the figures and text
supporting this discussion. The figure had to be moved to the
mega-manual/figures folder also.

No need to escape out quote characters in a .sed file. Also, using

I removed the less than pretty build process figure and swapped
in the more aesthetically pleasing one. Also, am refering to

I changed the "Metadata (Recipes)" title to simply "Recipes".
It is less confusing since the term "Metadata" is in general recipes,
classes, and configurations. Provdided a few small edits elsewhere
in the section.

The section titled "Development Concepts" is really mis-titled.
It is more about the OpenEmbedded Build System. So, I renamed the
section "OpenEmbedded Build System Concepts." There were a couple
links all within the overview-manual. No other place in the YP
doc set linked to that heading.

Softened the opening paragraph so it was not introducing any special
terms right off the bat. Renamed the section on the hardware layer
to configuring the build for specific hardware. Put in a link to
"build host" and used that term throughout.
