Subject: dev-manual, ref-manual: Created new section on linear revision for
 packages

Fixes [YOCTO #10995]

For the dev-manual, I added a new section on incrementing package
revision numbers that explains how the build system uses various
variables to create linearly numbered revisions for packages.

For the ref-manual, I cross-referenced into the new section from the
AUTOSRC and SRCREV variables.

(From yocto-docs rev: 53c3092e0f0293f4db0a88659abb4cf1c93f208c)
