documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-start.xml: Note added

Bruce Ashfield suggested adding a note near the explanation of creating
a bare clone that suggests if the user already has a linux yocto kernel
Git repo handy they can reference that repo in the 'git clone --bare'
command rather than referencing the upstream source repository as
a way to speed up the process.
