[DOCS] Update Configure and Build page to describe build types and layouts. #1141

Open chanmosq opened 2 years ago

Describe the issue briefly

The Setup from GitHub page mentions two different build types: source-engine and pre-built SDK engine. These two terms are important and used throughout the docs. They are only introduced in the Getting Started section, but I think we should consider putting it in the User Guide as well.

Another terminology introduced with docs for building releases is monolithic and non-monolithic. These are two different layouts that you can build the engine in.

Update Configure and Build page to describe both build types, and both build layouts.

Which page(s) / section(s) are affected?

https://o3de.org/docs/user-guide/build/configure-and-build/

Does this work have an engineering dependency? What is it?

For more information, reach out to #sig-build and O3DE Discord.

As part of the reference update, be sure to make sure that the glossary/appendix has correct definitions.
