Subject: dev-manual: Removed tarball method for installing meta-intel

Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

Partial fix for this issue, which is removal of the tarball install
methods for poky and now evidently meta-intel.  This commit removed
the tarball install step for meta-intel in the "Supported Board
Support Packages (BSPs):" bullet item in the getting setup section.
