Applied some minor fixes to this area as directed by
Paul Eggleton. This represents a clean second draft that
can be reviewed. ]

There is a cross-reference to the "How to Submit a Change"
section. I added a bit of text to note that the ready can
go there to find out who maintains code.

The "Tracking Bugs" section mentions how to enter a bug using
Bugzilla. I added a new step just before the step that says
to submit the bug that tells the user to be sure to copy the
correct people. The link goes to the section that describes
how to figure out who is responsible for code.

Provided three ways to dig out the information on who might
be contaced about a change or patch to an area of code:
1. See the "maintenance.inc" file.
2. Examine BSP README files or the MAINTAINERS file (for BSP)
3. Use the 'git shortlog -- <filename> command to see who
has committed the bulk of the changes for a particular file.

Paul Eggleton provided quite a series of patches that I previously
applied. These changes represent the edits from an interactive
review he conducted with me. The series of changes represents
his review for the entire set of changes in the original patch
series.

with better structure.
* Ensure we mention what kind of files go into T

Now that BB_SIGNATURE_HANDLER is OEBasicHash in OE-Core (which has
already reflected in this section) this statement makes no sense, so
drop it.
Changed "metadata" to "Metadata" for consistency across the
manual.

The existing definition was sparse and not quite correct.
I did some rewriting for active voice and present tense.

This also necessitated adding HOST_SYS so we can point to it being
matched against by COMPATIBLE_HOST; similarly MACHINEOVERRIDES and
SOC_FAMILY needed to be added for COMPATIBLE_MACHINE (and while we're
at it, let's add DISTROOVERRIDES; however I've drawn the line at
OVERRIDES since that ought to be covered by the BitBake manual).
Quite a bit of rewriting here to clear up some ambiguity created
through article use not specifically associated with subject matter.
Also, some recasting to active voice and present tense.
