ref-manual, dev-manual: Clarification of "native" and "sdknative"
Fixes [YOCTO #8620] I went through and made some judgement calls on the use of "native" and "sdknative". I tried to make sure that the reader understood the real meaning of these terms. (From yocto-docs rev: d711e8c6dfb32a4ad79e9d11dbf44fbc759d0245) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
