dev-manual, ref-manual, yocto-project-qs: Debian support added
Fixes [YOCTO #4912] Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux distributions we support and the required packages among other items that are tied to a distro. Debian had been missing except from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test against. I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned now.
