bitbake-user-manual: Created unique tags for glossary variables.
Fixes [YOCTO #12399] The bug was to get the BitBake User Manual into the YP Mega-manual. All the changes here create unique tags used with variables in the BitBake Manual. Prior to the fix, tags were identical between like variables in the YP reference manual and the BitBake User Manual. The reason for this is because when I created the BitBake manual's glossary, it was a cut-and-paste operation to get the bulk of the work started. At the time, the BitBake User Manual was not a part of the Mega-manual. Once we decided to include the BitBake User Manual as part of the Mega-Manual, building the mega-manual produced warnings for all these duplicate links. To fix, I have updated the variable tags in the BitBake User Manual to use the following form: 'var-bb-<variable_name>' The tags used in the YP ref-manual follow this form (original): 'var-<variable_name>' Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
