9b556772b6 manual: contributing: don't recommend leaving out changelog from patches
Currently, the manual states that if you send a series and include a
changelog in the introduction mail (0 of x), it is not necessary to include
a changelog on the individual patches.
This is not always convenient: for large patch series it requires going back
to the introduction mail when opening each patch, to understand what
changed.
This patch rewords the paragraph accordingly.

5e26da4673 docs/manual: rephrase paragraph about unsupported external toolchains
The ELDK now relies on Yocto, so it no longer has the funky
non-standard way of doing multilib. Also, we didn't mention that Yocto
toolchains/SDK are not suitable for usage with Buildroot. Therefore,
this commit rewords this part of the documentation to explain that
Yocto/OpenEmbedded SDKs cannot be used as external toolchains in
Buildroot, and why.

support is experimental. We also update the rest of the description to

a524731012 manual: add explanations on limitations about using O=...
Using a relative path for O=... has limitations, since it is interpreted
relative to the Buildroot tree, and thus may lead to unexpected results.

For example, running this:
    make -C buildroot O=my-O

will not create my-O in the current working directory, but as a
sub-directory of the Buildroot tree, here in buildroot/my-O

Explain this in the manual (as is similarly done for BR2_EXTERNAL).
Also add a note that $(O) will be created if missing.

Also change O=.. and -C .. to O=<...> and -C <...> to make it explicit
this is an ellipse, not a relative path.

1de64ec8c0 manual: switch BR2_EXTERNAL examples to use absolute paths
Although it is possible to use relative paths, there are a few pitfalls
when doing so.

To avoid confusion for a (newcoming) user, use absolute paths in the
manual (as is done in examples for $(O)), since it is guaranteed to be
working without corner cases.
