[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/makedevs: describe the recursive type in the README

[Marcus Folkesson]

The recursive type is described everywhere else, so add it to
the README as well.

Marcus, All,

On 2024-02-06 10:00 +0100, Marcus Folkesson spake thusly:
> The recursive type is described everywhere else, so add it to
> the README as well.

Instead of updating the README file, I removed it and repalced it with
a symlink to the corresponding section in the manujal, to avoid
duplicating the documentation.

Indeed, the manual section for makedevs was already recently updated,
but the README was missed. Having the symlink will prevvent the two from
diverging in the future.

Applied to master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
