yocto-project-qs: Fixed the example to use 'dd' instead of 'mkefidisk.sh' 

Fixes [YOCTO #10451]

The example that writes the image to bootable media did not seem
to work when using 'mkefidisk.sh'.  It does work using 'dd'.  I changed
the procedure to use 'dd'.

<listitem><para><emphasis>Write the Image:</emphasis>
You can write the image to a USB key, SATA drive, or SD
card by using the <filename>mkefidisk.sh</filename> script,
which is included in the <filename>poky</filename>
repository at
<filename>scripts/contrib/mkefidisk.sh</filename>:
You can write the image just built to a bootable media
(e.g. a USB key, SATA drive, SD card, etc.) using the
<filename>dd</filename> utility:

In the previous command,
<replaceable>HOST_DEVICE</replaceable> is the device node
on the build host (e.g. <filename>/dev/sdc</filename> or
<filename>/dev/mmcblk0</filename>).
<replaceable>TARGET_DEVICE</replaceable> is the name of the
device as the MinnowBoard MAX sees it (e.g.
<filename>/dev/sda</filename> or
<filename>/dev/mmcblk0</filename>).
In the previous command, the
<filename>TARGET_DEVICE</filename> is the device node in
the host machine (e.g. <filename>/dev/sdc</filename>, which
is most likely a USB stick, or
<filename>/dev/mmcblk0</filename>, which is most likely an
SD card.
