Currently, the manual uses the last modification date and time of
manual.txt in the generated manual.
This is confusing, especially for long-checked-out repositories where
the top-level manual.txt has not changed since the check out. Moreover,
the manual explicitly states 'generated on', which is confusing at best.
Use the current date and time instead.

Add a 'Known issues' chapter, which lists the exceptions I have
currently in the autobuilder scripts to avoid known problems from
occuring. I believe it is more useful to document them rather than
keeping them hidden in my autobuilder script.

The new skeleton of the manual as it has been thought:
1. About Buildroot:
Presentation of Buildroot
2. Starting up:
Everything to quickly and easily start working with Buildroot
3. Working with Buildroot
Basics to make your work fitting your needs
4. Troubleshooting
5. Going further in Buildroot's innards
Explaination of how buildroot is organised, how it works, etc
6. Developer Guidelines
7. Getting involved
8. Contibuting to Buildroot
9. Legal notice
10. Appendix
It is easy to distinguish two parts in this plan:
- Sections 1 to 4 mainly address people starting with Buildroot
- Sections 5 to 10 are more focused on how to develop Buildroot itself
Most of the existing sections have just been moved in the hierarchy,
few were split and dispatch in, what i think was the relevant section,
and numerous others have been created.
