ref-manual: Updated the STAGING_DIR variable description.
This variable plays a much smaller role since recipe-specific sysroots were implemented. I have rewritten the description to say that STAGING_DIR helps construct the recipe-sysroots directory. (From yocto-docs rev: c1ad18abe67111738efc18725c4f7706b55738cb) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
