Subject: [PATCH] ref-manual: Edits to a couple variables in the glossary

1. LINUX_VERSION_EXTENSION: Added a link on the
   LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE variable.

2. Added a new variable description for the
   LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE variable.

                     For example, the linux-yocto kernel recipes all define
