bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Updated inherit and INHERIT sections
Fixes [YOCTO #12031] Moved an inappropriate example from the bottom of the INHERIT Configuration Directive section up into the inherit directive section. Updated the example at the end of the INHERIT Configuration Directive section to apply to INHERIT.
