[PATCH] ref-manual: improve documentation for kernel-devicetree class

[michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com]

From: Michael Opdenacker <michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com>

- Document the new KERNEL_DTBDEST and KERNEL_DTBVENDORED variables
- Also document the related KERNEL_DEVICETREE_BUNDLE
  and KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME variables
