* ref-manual: variables: correct sdk installation default pathJohan Bezem2024-03-061-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
