ref-manual: Cleaned up some instances of the term "working directory"
This term should always reference a users current working directory and not be confused with the OpenEmbedded build system's "work directory (WORKDIR). I found several instances where the term "working directory" was not used correctly and fixed them. Reported-by: Robert P. J.
