dev-manual: Provided proper link title

2019-07-18T11:16:53+00:00

In the "Enabling GObject Introspection Support" section, a link existed to the "Known Issues" section further down in the chapter. The target of the link was missing and appeared as the placeholder "xxx". I put in the proper link.

documentation: Cleaned up "plug-in"/"plugin" terminology.

2019-05-07T09:23:42+00:00

The YP manual set was using the plugin term inconsistently. It was appearing as "plugin" as well as "plug-in". The plugins in the project are all named without a hyphen. The term itself is either/or according to Google. I have changed all references to plugin so that they do not use a hyphen.
