[PATCH v3 2/3] doc: bitbake-user-manual-metadata: remove invalid anonymous Python example

[Dawid Bijak <bijak.dawid@gmail.com>]

The documentation for inherit_defer suggested that conditional inheritance
can be achieved by setting a variable inside an anonymous python function
and then referencing it from inherit_defer.
This does not work: inherit_defer is resolved before the anonymous Python
functions run.

Replace the example with a warning explaining that anonymous Python
functions cannot be used to drive inherit_defer, since they run after
the directive has already been resolved.
