bitbake: user-manual-metadata.xml: Added varflag for vardepvalueexclude.

Fixes [YOCTO #5897]

Added several new varflags to the existing list in the
"Variable Flags" section.  The key one being the
"vardepvalueexclude" flag.

Several varflags are useful for controlling how signatures are
calculated for variables.
For more information on this process, see the
"<link linkend='checksums'>Checksums (Signatures)</link>"
section.
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><emphasis>vardeps:</emphasis>
Specifies a space-separated list of additional
variables to add to a variable's dependencies
for the purposes of calculating its signature.
Adding variables to this list is useful, for example, when
a function refers to a variable in a manner that
does not allow BitBake to automatically determine
that the variable is referred to.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para><emphasis>vardepvalue:</emphasis>
If set, instructs BitBake to ignore the actual
value of the variable and instead use the specified
value when calculating the variable's signature.

<listitem><para><emphasis>vardepsexclude:</emphasis>
Specifies a space-separated list of variables
that should be excluded from a variable's dependencies
for the purposes of calculating its signature.

<listitem><para><emphasis>vardepvalueexclude:</emphasis>
Specifies a pipe-separated list of strings to exclude
from the variable's value when calculating the
variable's signature.
