documentation: Rename of poky-ref-manual folder to ref-manual.

Changing the folder that holds the YP Reference Manual to be
"ref-manual".  This will help with confustion over the manual's
intended purpose.

<p>
Autotools can require tests that must execute on the target hardware.
Since this is not possible in general when cross compiling, site information is
used to provide cached test results so these tests can be skipped over but
still make the correct values available.
The <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="structure-meta-site.html" title="5.3.18.<2E>meta/site/">meta/site directory</a></code>
contains test results sorted into different categories such as architecture, endianness, and
the <code class="filename">libc</code> used.
Site information provides a list of files containing data relevant to
the current build in the
<code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-CONFIG_SITE" title="CONFIG_SITE">CONFIG_SITE</a></code> variable
that Autotools automatically picks up.
</p>
<p>
The class also provides variables like
<code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-SITEINFO_ENDIANNESS" title="SITEINFO_ENDIANNESS">SITEINFO_ENDIANNESS</a></code>
and <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-SITEINFO_BITS" title="SITEINFO_BITS">SITEINFO_BITS</a></code>
that can be used elsewhere in the metadata.
</p>
<p>
Because this class is included from <code class="filename">base.bbclass</code>, it is always active.
