dev-manual: Updates for checksums and wic

Browse Source 
Accidentally put in a couple different things in this one commit.
Oh well.

1. New wording for how the user needs to figure out some checksums
   for a recipe.

2. Fixed up some note placement in the wic reference section.

(From yocto-docs rev: 6c13f49c265c99ddd6dcd4ec3c3c8e66b78824e0)
