bitbake: user-manual-metadata.xml: Edits to "Basic Variable Setting"
Fixes [YOCTO #5507] I applied some edits from Richard's review to the fix for handling variable setting. Moved the new section I created into the existing "Basic Variable Setting" section. (Bitbake rev: 0d63589abfa6b353f3b456a9a91de4dd98eb3965) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
