documentation/poky-ref-manual: Yocto Project scrub
I have changed as many "Yocto Project" terms as possible so that better reflect reality. (From yocto-docs rev: 5f729e53b0cb653c97621e4e6598d9295d60ada5) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
