ref-manual: Added the build/tmp/work-shared directory.
Added a brief explanation of this temporary directory to the chapter that presents the structure of the Source Directory. The explanation is based on Paul Eggleton's input.

770 For efficiency, the OpenEmbedded build system creates and uses
771 this directory to hold recipes that share a work directory with
772 other recipes.
773 In practice, this is only used for <filename>gcc</filename>
774 and its variants (e.g. <filename>gcc-cross</filename>,
775 <filename>libgcc</filename>, <filename>gcc-runtime</filename>,
776 and so forth).
