ref-manual, dev-manual: Added info about make race work-around

Browse Source 
I updated both the PARALLEL_MAKE and PARALLEL_MAKEINST variables
by expanding the note to indicate how to prohibit parallel make
threads.  Also, added a cross-referencing link to the
"Debugging Parallel Make Races" section.

I added a short note to the start of the "Debugging Parallel Make
Races" section noting that if they can't properly fix the condition,
they can always do a work-around to set the PARALLEL_MAKE or
PARALLEL_MAKEINST variables to null.

This section presents a real-world example of an error encountered
