Documentation: dev-manual, bsp-guide, poky-ref-manual - bblayer.conf updates
Fixes [YOCTO #3176] Several places throughout the YP manual set examples are given for the bblayer.conf file. For release 1.3, a bug existed that surfaced when a user removed either the meta or meta-yocto layer from this configuration file. The bug has been fixed and the ripple effect through the YP documentation set affected several manuals. Fixes include updating the code samples that show bblayer.conf so that they now include the BBLAYERS_NON_REMOVABLE variable, a new glossary entry for the variable, and an explanation of both BBLAYER and BBLAYER_NON_REMOVABLE in the section that talks about the bblayer.conf file.
