I've been wanting to do this for a while:

  • Move most of the runtime package management section in the Annex.
  • Create a new OTA updates section and make the above part of it.
  • Add 2 slides on A/B updates solutions.

This shouldn't lengthen the training so much: we have a small slide covering package management, but we can quickly switch to the A/B updates slides and say we cover that in-depth in the security training.

Rename the runtime package management section to "OTA updates", and move
most of its content (the setup part) to the Annex, with a link to it.

Using A/B update is often what we recommend to use instead of runtime
package management, so add 2 slides mentioning it and provide links to
Yocto layers. Link to the security training which covers this in details.

Runtime package management is rarely used on the field (A/B updates are
usually preferred, and we present this right after). Mention it in a
bullet point.
