ref-manual: Enhanced the glossary description for INHERIT 

Fixes [YOCTO #11498]

I enhanced the description of the INHERIT variable's glossary
description to provide more detail.  I also included a link into the
section of the BB manual where INHERIT is described.

(From yocto-docs rev: ed44df6342ee20720aeee2dd8eae944db767023e)
