dev-manual; ref-manual: Fixed &dash; issue
Fixes [YOCTO #7386] Apparently the "&dash;" ENTITY used throughout the YP manual set to get literal "-" characters in example commands renders into a unicode that is not a dash. This results in users getting errors if they attempt to cut-and-paste a sample command that uses a "-" character from the manual into a shell. I have universally replaced all the "&dash;" strings in the YP manual set to "-" strings. (From yocto-docs rev: 1309e124d83fdf3c98be5c3ff1943f1c0d496c20) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
