Scott Rifenbark ed0a240e16 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>
The base class is special in that every <code class="filename">.bb</code>
file inherits it automatically.
This class contains definitions for standard basic
tasks such as fetching, unpacking, configuring (empty by default), compiling
(runs any <code class="filename">Makefile</code> present), installing (empty by default) and packaging
(empty by default).
These classes are often overridden or extended by other classes
such as <code class="filename">autotools.bbclass</code> or <code class="filename">package.bbclass</code>.
The class also contains some commonly used functions such as <code class="filename">oe_runmake</code>.
