ref-manual, mega-manual: Updates to the SDK Generation section
Fixes [YOCTO #2808] I updated the figure to not call out the SDK environment setup script as it is part of the .sh file. The figure was placed in the "figures" directory of the ref-manual and the mega-manual. Also, I removed the duplicated variable descriptions and referenced these descriptions in the "Application Development SDK" section, which is further down in the manual. The descriptions have more to do with where output is placed.
