documentation: poky-ref-manual - New backfill variables and section.
Document DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL and MACHINE_FEATURES_BACKFILL. We may
wish to expand upon this in future, but at least this explains what
these variables are for and how to use them.
Also add a link from the DISTRO_FEATURES entry to the section that lists
valid DISTRO_FEATURES items.
