ref-manual: Updates to ELF binary QA warning
Fixes [YOCTO #7630] Apparently the text relocation being done here can cause runtime performance issues. I documented a potential work-around for the issue and provided a cross-reference link to an external site for more general information about text relocation at runtime. Reported-by: Laszlo Papp <lpapp@kde.org> (From yocto-docs rev: f7ba2fd03ee40c5dbe6a07a24a63d9147857ed78) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
