sdk-manual: Updated the "Makefile-Based Projects" section.

Expanded this section to contain a figure of the flow and an
example that showcases the ways to override and use SDK
environment and Makefile variables.

-            variables used in your Makefile.
+            cross-toolchain environment variables and Makefile variables

+                    As described earlier in the manual, installing the

+                    script in the directory that the SDK was installed.
+                    Before you can use the tools to develop your project,
+                    you must source this setup script.
+                    The script begins with the string "environment-setup"
+                    and contains the machine architecture, which is
+                    followed by the string "poky-linux".
+                    For this example, the command sources a script from the
+                    default SDK installation directory that uses the
+                    32-bit Intel x86 Architecture and the

+                    One line is identical to the value that is set when you
