I added information that describes the relationship between
poky/documentation and yocto-docs/documentation. For developers,
they need to know to work from the yocto-docs Git repository
and not to rely on the poky/documentation Git repository, which
can lag behind the other one.

Minor edits to the BSP Guide, the Development Manual, and the
Kernel Manual to address [YOCTO #1717], which noted confusion
over the kernel manual when a user was trying to find kernel
configuration information.
The fix for this bug involved several areas. I had previously
created a new section called "Kernel Configuration" in the kernel
manual and "Configuring the Kernel" in the YP Development manual.
There were several rounds of feedback from Bruce Ashfield.
This commit represents the final touches on the three manuals to
address the bug.

Added a bit more information to the wording where it talks about
creating a Git Repository if you are going to contribute back
into YP. This change was suggested by Robert P. J. Day and
was submitted to me in the form of a patch. For reasons unknown
to me the patch Hunk failed even though I believe I had things
saved and applied correctly. I had to resort to applying it by
hand. I ended up doing a bit of re-writing on the suggested
change to clean it up.

I tried to implement some comments by Richard on the B glossary
entry and the externalsrc.bbclass section. The comments were a bit
confusing to me but the gist of it was I mis-interpreted Richard's
comments on supporting separate directories for B and S. I had
indicated that autotools-based recipes did this by default, which
was wrong. What was confusing to me is where the comments should
be. I ended up putting them in both areas of the reference manual.
