ref-manual: Enhanced the glossary description for INHERIT

Browse Source 
Fixes [YOCTO #11498]

I enhanced the description of the INHERIT variable's glossary
description to provide more detail.  I also included a link into the
section of the BB manual where INHERIT is described.

(From yocto-docs rev: 663cde3cf05ebf564ff3a28cd37b696be2f91ad8)
