2020-03-11manuals: Updates to reflect that MACHINE defaults to qemux86-64Mark Asselstine
meta-yocto commit 69ddecdb1516 [local.conf.sample: change default MACHINE to qemux86-64] switched the default MACHINE from 'qemux86' to 'qemux86-64' but some documents which either explicitly mentioned the default, or where this was implicit didn't receive an equivalent update. Where it made sense we continue this change in default to the docs. In other places, such as the kernel-dev manual, we note the new default and instruct the user how to switch back to 'qemux86'. Eventually we should probably update the kernel-dev manual to use the default, but for now the intention was to limit the impact of these changes. Note that ext3 has also been replaced with ext4 for image generation, so while we are modifying runqemu lines to qemux86-64 we also make the change to reference ext4 such that the runqemu commands will function properly.
