ref-manual: Updated warning regarding libexecdir
Fixes [YOCTO #6398] Fixed the text according to Ross such that the specified package contains files in /usr/libexec when the distro configuration uses a different path for <libexecdir>. By default libexecdir is $prefix/libexec but this can be changed, for example to ${libdir}.
