ref-manual: classes: nativesdk: move note to appropriate section

2025-06-20T15:38:12+00:00

The nativesdk- prefix to the recipe filename should only be used when using the inherit method as the BBCLASSEXTEND method will do some magic when generating the "implicit" name of the recipe. This matches the instructions for the native class.

ref-manual: classes: reword to clarify that native/nativesdk options are exclusive

2025-06-20T15:38:12+00:00

We explain how to create a native (nativesdk) recipe in two different ways via a bullet list but reading quickly the instructions may mislead one into doing both options whereas they are incompatible. This rewords both the nativesdk and native sections so that the second bullet point starts with an Or and explicit that this applies to target recipes.
