[yocto] is it "IMAGE_INSTALL +=" or "IMAGE_INSTALL_append ="?

  currently, the dev manual (Section 4.2.1) proposes the use of

  IMAGE_INSTALL += "strace"

but the poky ref manual in the variable glossary explicitly
discourages that form, and instead recommends

  IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " package-name"

  can we agree that the "_append" form is preferred?  thoughts?
