dev-manual: Added new section on conserving disk space

For conserving disk space during builds, I added a new section
that tells how to add "rm_work" to your local.conf file.
This information was part of the original YP Quick Start
and was not carried forward into the new brief build
document.

<title>Conserving Disk Space During Builds</title>
<para>
To help conserve disk space during builds, you can add the
following statement to your project's
<filename>local.conf</filename> configuration file found in the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory</ulink>:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
INHERIT += "rm_work"
</literallayout>
Adding this statement deletes the work directory used for building
a recipe once the recipe is built.
For more information on "rm_work", see the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#ref-classes-rm-work'><filename>rm_work</filename></ulink>
class in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
