manuals: simplify references to the BitBake User Manual
- Replacing
:ref:`bitbake:bitbake-user-manual/...`
by :ref:`bitbake-user-manual/...`
Adding "bitbake:" as a prefix is not necessary
as there is no naming conflict between the YP
and the BitBake manuals (all documents are in
"bitbake-user-manual/")
- Explaining the rules in the README file
- When necessary, fixing line length in the modified paragraphs.
(From yocto-docs rev: d80b31705450cfb98d217ea44ba2edace2d64095)
