bitbake: sphinx: partial undo (bitbake-user-manual: update perforce fetcher docs)

This change is not applicable to 1.46/dunfell branch, and was brought
by the automatic backport of Sphinx docs, so let's undo it. Note that
this patch also included a general statement which applies to 1.46, so
this snippet was not removed.

You should always set S to "${WORKDIR}/p4" in your recipe.
By default, the fetcher strips the depot location from the local file paths. In
the above example, the content of ``example-depot/main/source/`` will be placed
in ``${WORKDIR}/p4``. For situations where preserving parts of the remote depot
paths locally is desirable, the fetcher supports two parameters:
- *"module":*
The top-level depot location or directory to fetch. The value of this
parameter can also point to a single file within the depot, in which case
the local file path will include the module path.
- *"remotepath":*
When used with the value "``keep``", the fetcher will mirror the full depot
paths locally for the specified location, even in combination with the
``module`` parameter.
Here is an example use of the the ``module`` parameter: ::
SRC_URI = "p4://user:passwd@example-depot/main;module=source/..."
In this case, the content of the top-level directory ``source/`` will be fetched
to ``${P4DIR}``, including the directory itself. The top-level directory will
be accesible at ``${P4DIR}/source/``.
Here is an example use of the the ``remotepath`` parameter: ::
SRC_URI = "p4://user:passwd@example-depot/main;module=source/...;remotepath=keep"
In this case, the content of the top-level directory ``source/`` will be fetched
to ``${P4DIR}``, but the complete depot paths will be mirrored locally. The
top-level directory will be accessible at
``${P4DIR}/example-depot/main/source/``.
