documentation: Removed deprecated kernel-manual.
Fixes [YOCTO #4810] I removed this manual from the tip of the repo. We carried a symlink to it for the 1.4 and 1.4.1 release. Now it is time to get rid of it. Removing this manual should get rid of the folder in the poky/documentation folder for future clones of that repo. This bug was entered because someone tried to make the manual for YP 1.5. It is debatable as to whether this is a fix or not. You might argue that the bug is not even a bug.

12 The Yocto Project presents kernels as a fully patched, history-clean Git
13 repositories.
14 Each repository represents selected features, board support,
15 and configurations extensively tested by the Yocto Project.
16 Yocto Project kernels allow the end user to leverage community
17 best practices to seamlessly manage the development, build and debug cycles.

20 This manual describes Yocto Project kernels by providing information
21 on history, organization, benefits, and use.
22 The manual consists of two sections:
23 <itemizedlist>
24 <listitem><para><emphasis>Concepts:</emphasis> Describes concepts behind a kernel.
25 You will understand how a kernel is organized and why it is organized in
26 the way it is. You will understand the benefits of a kernel's organization
27 and the mechanisms used to work with the kernel and how to apply it in your
28 design process.</para></listitem>
29 <listitem><para><emphasis>Using a Kernel:</emphasis> Describes best practices
30 and "how-to" information
31 that lets you put a kernel to practical use.
32 Some examples are how to examine changes in a branch and how to
33 save kernel modifications.</para></listitem>
