[PATCH 02/12] ref-manual: update SDK_NAME variable documentation

[Paul Eggleton]

Update for changes in nanbield. Note that I am documenting what is set
by poky.conf here (since this is Yocto Project documentation), which is
slightly different from what is done in meta/conf/bitbake.conf.

[PATCH 03/12] ref-manual: remove semicolons from *PROCESS_COMMAND variables

[Paul Eggleton]

In nanbield these are no longer needed - spaces are sufficient.
The code still handles any semicolons (replacing them with spaces before
interpreting the value), but let's avoid people adding them from now on
in case we decide to change that in future.

[PATCH 07/12] release-notes-4.3: remove the Distribution section

[Paul Eggleton]

This section doesn't make a lot of sense to separate out. The SPDX
change is now no longer Poky-specific, and the poky-altcfg usrmerge
change is not really notable given that poky-altcfg is not widely used
outside of our testing and also itself selects systemd as INIT_MANAGER
and thus requires usrmerge anyway (as noted elsewhere).

[PATCH 08/12] release-notes-4.3: move new classes to Rust section

[Paul Eggleton]

These are both Rust-related, let's move them the Rust section since they
are more notable there.

[PATCH 10/12] migration-4.3: remove some unnecessary items

[Paul Eggleton]

Remove some items from the 4.3 migration guide:

* The PERLVERSION and PERLARCH items are already mentioned under the
  removed variables section
* The jsDelivr item is interesting, but it isn't a backwards
  compatibility issue that the user would need to take action to
  resolve, and we already cover it in the release notes.

+Output file naming changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In 4.3 there are some minor differences in image and SDK output file names.
+If you rely on the existing naming (e.g. in external scripts) you may need to
+either modify configuration or adapt to the new naming. Further details:
+
+-  :term:`IMAGE_NAME` and :term:`IMAGE_LINK_NAME` now include the
+   :term:`IMAGE_NAME_SUFFIX` value directly. In practical terms, this means
+   that ``.rootfs`` will now appear in image output file names. If you do not
+   wish to have the ``.rootfs`` suffix used, you can just set
+   :term:`IMAGE_NAME_SUFFIX` to "" and this will now be consistently respected
+   in both the image file and image file symlink names. As part of this change,
+   support for the ``imgsuffix`` task varflag has been dropped (mostly
+   an internal implementation detail, but if you were implementing a custom
+   image construction with a task in a similar manner to ``do_bootimg``
+   you may have been using this).
+
+-  :term:`SDK_NAME` now includes the values of :term:`IMAGE_BASENAME` and
+   :term:`MACHINE` so that they are unique when building SDKs for different
+   images and machines.
+
+
+
+.. _migration-4.3-pr-pe:
+
+Versioning changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  :term:`PR` values have been removed from all core recipes - distro maintainers
+   who make use of :term:`PR` values would need to curate these already so the
+   sparsely set base values would not be that useful anymore. If you have been
+   relying on these (i.e. you are maintaining a binary package feed where package
+   versions should only ever increase), double-check the output (perhaps with the
+   help of the :ref:`ref-classes-buildhistory` class) to ensure that package
+   versions are consistent.
+
+-  The :term:`PR` value can no longer be set from the recipe file name - this
+   was rarely used, but in any case is no longer supported.
+
+-  :term:`PE` and :term:`PR` are no longer included in the work directory path
+   (:term:`WORKDIR`). This may break some tool assumptions about directory paths,
+   but those should really be querying paths from the build system (or not poking
+   into :term:`WORKDIR` externally).
+
+-  Source revision information has been moved from :term:`PV` to :term:`PKGV`.
+   The user visible effect of this change is that :term:`PV` will no longer have
+   revision information in it and this will now be appended to the :term:`PV`
+   value through :term:`PKGV` when the packages are written out (as long as "+"
+   is present in the :term:`PKGV` value). Since :term:`PV` is used in
+   :term:`STAMP` and :term:`WORKDIR`, you may notice small directory naming and
+   stamp naming changes.
+
+-  The :term:`SRCPV` variable is no longer be needed in :term:`PV`, but since
+   the default :term:`SRCPV` value is now "", using it is effectively now just a
+   null operation - you can remove it (leaving behind the "+") , but it is not
+   yet required to do so.

Many thanks! I'm away traveling this week, but I should find some time 
this afternoon or evening to process them so that we can proceed with 
the release.
Thanks again
Michael.

Oops, I guess it's not the first time I make this mistake.
I show pay extra attention every time I feeling like using the "allow"

Oops, I realize that in the docs we usually use two spaces after "-", 
though its not required by Sphinx. However, the script doesn't do that. 
That was already the case for previous release notes.

I fixed that manually, but I don't think I'll modify past release notes. 
If the script could do that too, that would be nice to have... Not 
urgent at all, of course! I can ask again when a future point release is 
made.

Thanks
Michael.

It looks ready for the release.
Thanks again
