From: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark at intel.com>

Added command 'ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb' as the command to see the
supported images.  Also added poky-image-lsb as an image and noted
that poky-image-sdk has becom poky-image-sato-dev.

These fixes are in response to alpha testing for release 1.0 Yocto.
