ref-manual: Added the pn-buildlist file to list of files 

In the "Dependency Graphs" section, the pn-buildlist file was
not mentioned as a file generated by the
'bitbake -g <target>' command.  I added this in and provided a
bit of re-writing.

Sometimes it can be hard to see why BitBake wants to build some other packages before a given
package you have specified.
The <filename>bitbake -g targetname</filename> command creates the
<filename>depends.dot</filename>, <filename>package-depends.dot</filename>,
and <filename>task-depends.dot</filename> files in the current directory.
These files show the package and task dependencies and are useful for debugging problems.
You can use the <filename>bitbake -g -u depexp targetname</filename> command to
display the results in a more human-readable form.
