Richard Purdie 039a2d006b conf/machine/tune: Overhaul tune include file variables

There is currently consideradble confusion over how the tune files operate
and how these interact with the rest of the build system. This update/overhaul
changes things so the tune files are primarily resonsible for setting:

TUNE_ARCH - What was formerly set as TARGET_ARCH and is the value that
represents the architecture we're targetting.

TUNE_PKGARCH - The value that represents the tune confuration that this set
of tune parameters results in.

This allows the significant improvement that the core can now always determine
the target architecture value, even when TARGET_ARCH needs to be reset to
something different and likewise, there is one package architecture variable
the core can reference allowing simplification of the BASE_PACKAGE_ARCH, PACKAGE_ARCH
and FEED_ARCH variables.

README

Poky
====

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as 
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information 
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a 
reference manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
