bsp-guide: Removed 3.10 and 3.17 kernel references.
Version 1.8 drops support of the 3.10 and 3.17 kernels. The emenlow example was using the 3.10 kernel recipe as a showcase and it also listed the recipe in the directory structure. I removed it. Additionally, the yocto-bsp create command was prompting for the user to accept the default 3.17 kernel. I changed that to 3.19.
