Fixes [YOCTO #4810]
I removed this manual from the tip of the repo. We carried a symlink
to it for the 1.4 and 1.4.1 release. Now it is time to get rid of it.
Removing this manual should get rid of the folder in the poky/documentation
folder for future clones of that repo.
This bug was entered because someone tried to make the manual for YP
1.5. It is debatable as to whether this is a fix or not. You might
argue that the bug is not even a bug.

The URL naming convention for the YP Release Notes has changed.
It now takes the following form:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yoctoproject-15-poky-1000
The above is an example for YP Release 1.5 and poky release 10.0.0.
I have set up three new variables in the poky.ent file to somewhat
automate the links in the docs to point to the location of a given
set of release notes:
1. DISTRO_COMPRESSED - set to the DISTRO string with no period
(e.g 15 for 1.5).
2. POKYVERSION_COMPRESSED - set to the poky version with no
periods (e.g. 1000 for 10.0.0).
3. YOCTO_RELEASE_NOTES - set to the full-blown release note
URL.
I made two changes to existing links for the Release Notes. One
was in the dev-manual and one was in the ref-manual.
