The documentation currently has no Gentoo section under 'Required
Packages for the Build Host'. Third-party guides commonly reference
incorrect Gentoo package atoms (dev-util/chrpath, app-text/chrpath,
dev-util/cpio) which do not exist in the Portage tree, causing
confusion for Gentoo users trying to set up a Yocto build host.

This patch adds a Gentoo-specific section with verified package atoms
and notes on the common naming mistakes, along with a reminder about
Python version compatibility for Scarthgap/Nanbield.

Verified on Gentoo Linux (OpenRC, amd64) against the Portage tree
as of April 2026.
