ref-manual: Updated the STAGING_DIR variable description.

Browse Source 
This variable plays a much smaller role since recipe-specific
sysroots were implemented.  I have rewritten the description to say
that STAGING_DIR helps construct the recipe-sysroots directory.

(From yocto-docs rev: c1ad18abe67111738efc18725c4f7706b55738cb)
