dev-manual: Edits to "Locate a Base Recipe" section.
I removed the note structure for the information about BitBake parcing curly braces. The note was to prominent. I added a leading sentence to better integrate the information into the section.

If a recipe uses a closing curly brace within the function and
the character has no leading spaces, BitBake produces a parsing

If you use a pair of curly brace in a shell function, the
closing curly brace must not be located at the start of the line
