documentation: BSP Developer's Guide fixes
- use linux-yocto instead of linux-yocto-stable in examples - change branch names to match linux-yocto usage - remove outdated 'wrs' where it appears (From OE-Core rev: 7f1662ef01b383c9fecb2b30ade50de97f17529a) Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
