1. The Toaster UI must be updated in the Bitbake Variables page to reflect the syntax override for the newer releases.

2. The toaster variables written and read from a project's 'local.conf' must use the syntax override for its variables.

   bitbake: toaster: Fix IMAGE_INSTALL issues with _append vs :append

I want to confirm that importing an existing project works as expected in this regard.
