In keeping with the addition of the motd message pointing out that
the poky DISTRO is a reference distribution, adjust the opening of the
Creating Your Own Distribution section to match. Additionally, add a
section on the end pointing out what users need to consider if they just
take a copy of the poky distribution and modify it.

Makes it possible to catch errors not reported by sphinx,
such as idle spaces. After customization, this should be used
to enforce our syntax conventions, such as two spaces after a "-"
character to introduce a list item.
Just run "make sphinx-lint".

Fix some hyphens being improperly used as em dashes.
See https://www.grammarly.com/blog/hyphens-and-dashes/
Using em dashes may also allow Sphinx to hyphenate
and break lines in the best way.
Note that the first character after an em dash not
supposed to be capitalized, unless a specific
rule applies, typically when what follows is a proper noun.
Fix a few misuses of parentheses in following text.

The SDKPATH variable seems mistakenly identified as the
default path where the SDK will be installed by the generated
installation script, unless option '-d' or a manual input
overrides this default.
The intended variable is SDKPATHINSTALL. SDKPATH indicates
where the SDK is being composed and built.
The definitions have been added/updated.

do_cleanall can produce failures when used in legitimate cases, such as
with recipe variants (foo and foo-native) or a shared DL_DIR. This is why
it is forbidden when writing tests that will run on the autobuilders
(https://docs.yoctoproject.org/test-manual/intro.html?highlight=cleanall#considerations-when-writing-tests).
Reword the documentation to clearly discourage, provide a safe alternative
(bitbake -f -c fetch), and the rationale with an example.

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are"
by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural.
In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"
by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at
the end of the sentence.
In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when
it's redundant with the preceding title.
