docs: kernel-dev: faq: update tip on how to not include kernel in image
Since commit f6d963fa6d0e ("kernel: make kernel-base recommend
kernel-image, not depend"), present in Kirkstone 4.0, one should
set RRECOMMENDS and not RDEPENDS to avoid including the kernel in the
image, so let's update the documentation to reflect that.
