documentation/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.xml: Added note to poky-qemu command
Depending on the architecture you are booting and the profile of the filesystem image QEMU might come up in a new shell, and existing shell, have a GUI, or be in command-line mode. I added a note indicating this behavior. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com>

+ The environment in which QEMU launches varies depending on the filesystem image and on the
+ target architecture. For example, if you source the environment for the ARM target
+ architecture and then boot the minimal QEMU image, the emulator comes up in a new
+ shell in command-line mode. However, if you boot the SDK image QEMU comes up with
+ a GUI.
