Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2 v2] docs/manual: add appendix about migratinf from older versions

Hello All!

When we release a new version that voluntarliy breaks compatibility with previous versions, we must document it to hepl the uesr migrate more easily.

In 2017.08, we broke the compatibility with previous versions because we no longer accept an RPATH pointing to $(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib, even though that would technically functional.

Add an appendix about that.

Changes v1 -> v2:
- move all to a single file (Thomas)
- fix typoes (Thomas)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
