dev-manual: Added reference to QA checks in the "Packaging" section.
The "Writing a New Recipe" section has a subsection named "Packaging." We needed a cross-reference here to the QA checks performed for packaging.

+ The <filename>insane</filename> class adds a step to the
+ package generation process so that output quality assurance
+ checks are generated by the OpenEmbedded build system.
+ This step performs a range of checks to be sure the build's
+ output is free of common problems that show up during runtime.
+ For information on these checks, see the
+ <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#ref-classes-insane'><filename>insane</filename></ulink>
+ class and the
