dev-manual: bmaptool: rename

Browse Source 
What was previously known variously as Bmaptool, bmaptools, bmap-tool,
and/or bmap-tools has been updated to the singular name: bmaptool. Update
all references to suit.

Since we are not in charge of debian's package naming policy, any
references that relate to debian package(s) will stay as "bmap-tools".
