doc: extend documentation for supported hardware
The documentation does now contain the names of the images and information about where to find the serial console ports of the boards. As some hardware platforms do currently not work again after the recent rework, we remove them from the ToC for now and re-add them later when they have been tested and fixed. Adding Build doc to .gitignore. Signed-off-by: Chris Fiege <c.fiege@pengutronix.de> [improve commit message] Signed-off-by: Robert Schwebel <r.schwebel@pengutronix.de>

Beaglebone Black
================
-foo bar baz
+Boot Media
+----------
+Use the image ``platform-v7a/images/beaglebone.hdimg`` and copy it onto your MicroSD-Card.
+Press the user-button ``S2`` when powering up the Beaglebone Black to boot from MicroSD-Card. ``S2`` is the button above the MicroSD-Card.
+
+Serial Console
+--------------
+The serial boot console is available via the debug connector J1 at 115200 Baud and 8N1. The pinout is:
+
+* J1.1: GND
+* J1.4: RxD
+* J1.5: TxD
