dev-manual: Added note about RPM not dealing with post-install
Fixes [YOCTO #10351]
I added a note to the "Post Installation Scripts" section of the
"Writing a New Recipe" section to call out the fact that the
RPM package manager will not install packages on the target when
any RPM post-install script returns a non-zero exit code when
the script is run on the target.
