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 license of an upstream project might change in the future.
In order to prevent these changes going unnoticed, the
<code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-LIC_FILES_CHKSUM" title="LIC_FILES_CHKSUM">LIC_FILES_CHKSUM</a></code>
variable tracks changes to the license text. The checksums are validated at the end of the
configure step, and if the checksums do not match, the build will fail.
