ref-manual: New variables added and some edits as well
Fixes [YOCTO #5931] Added descriptions for the following variables in the glossary: * MODULE_IMAGE_BASE_NAME * KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME * PKGE * PKGV * PKGR * PKG The first two are for the bug. The remainder needed to be added as they were referenced from the first two (except for PKG, which I was told needed to be added anyway. I also fixed a couple formatting issues in there for some other variables.
