* bitbake: doc: Rename user-manual -> bitbake-user-manualRichard Purdie2014-04-211-0/+2131
This manual gets combined with other manuals and in that context, it helps a lot if its seen as the Bitbake User Manual. Renames are a pain but this is worthwhile so that other docs can correctly be combined with this one. This also clarifies things like google search results which is helpful.
