Scott Rifenbark ae06e04cd2 documentation: Created new "Getting Started" manual.
Creation involved removing the overview-manual and replacing it
with the getting-started manual.  All links to the string
"&YOCTO_DOCS_OVERVIEW_URL" had to be replaced with
"&YOCTO_DOCS_GS_URL" across the entire YP manual set.  I renamed
files used to create the manual with prefixes suited for the
new manual name, which is "Getting Started With Yocto Project".

The style sheet for the new manual needed updating to display the
new .PNG image for the title page.  The mega-manual file had to
be updated to include the files.  The mega-manual.sed file had
to be updated to include the new manual and not use the overview
manual.

<p>
Two kinds of mirrors exist: pre-mirrors and regular mirrors.
The
<a class="link" href="../ref-manual/var-PREMIRRORS.html" target="_self"><code class="filename">PREMIRRORS</code></a>
and
<a class="link" href="../ref-manual/var-MIRRORS.html" target="_self"><code class="filename">MIRRORS</code></a>
variables point to these, respectively.
BitBake checks pre-mirrors before looking upstream for any
source files.
Pre-mirrors are appropriate when you have a shared directory
that is not a directory defined by the
<a class="link" href="../ref-manual/var-DL_DIR.html" target="_self"><code class="filename">DL_DIR</code></a>
variable.
A Pre-mirror typically points to a shared directory that is
local to your organization.
</p>
<p>
Regular mirrors can be any site across the Internet that is
used as an alternative location for source code should the
primary site not be functioning for some reason or another.
