* ref-manual, dev-manual: Updated "Creating Partitioned Images" section title.Scott Rifenbark2017-10-164-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | Added "Using Wic" to the section head because that is all we talk about. This affect three links in the ref-manual so I fixed those as well.

* dev-manual, ref-manual: Moved kickstart reference to ref-manualScott Rifenbark2017-10-165-318/+294
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This section was misplaced in the dev-manual and really needed to be in the ref-manual. I created a new chapter that follows the devtool reference chapter and put the kickstart chapter there. Links were needed to be fixed up and a new chapter in the ref-manual named ref-kickstart.xml had to be created.

And a small procedure on how to create config fragments using the "diffconfig" command was retained. Links from the dev-manual and the ref-manual were adjusted as well.
