[yocto] is the ref manual DISTRO_FEATURES list meant to be exhaustive?

in case this is helpful, here's the full list i came up with using a
simple grep search looking through the dora 10.0 source tree for
DISTRO_FEATURES tests of values that aren't listed in section 10.1 of
the ref manual:
3g
acl
directfb
ipv4
largefile
libc-posix-clang-wchar
ld-is-gold
multiarch
nfc
openvg
pam
pie
pulseaudio
ptest
sysvinit
x11
xattr
zeroconf
conversely, there *are* a few values listed in section 10.1 of the ref
manual that don't appear to be tested for anywhere (typo? obsolete?)
ext2
irda (this is a MACHINE feature but not a DISTRO feature)
sdk-pms
for what it's worth. i'm about to do the same scan for
MACHINE_FEATURES.
