documentation: Updates for [YOCTO #1717].
Minor edits to the BSP Guide, the Development Manual, and the Kernel Manual to address [YOCTO #1717], which noted confusion over the kernel manual when a user was trying to find kernel configuration information. The fix for this bug involved several areas. I had previously created a new section called "Kernel Configuration" in the kernel manual and "Configuring the Kernel" in the YP Development manual. There were several rounds of feedback from Bruce Ashfield. This commit represents the final touches on the three manuals to address the bug.
