ref-manual: Updated "Viewing Variable Values" section. 

Fixes [YOCTO #10292]

I added an additional paragraph at the end of the section that
provided more detail on what the bitbake -e and bitbake -e recipe
commands provide in the way output.

(From yocto-docs rev: 1dcdb6781105f046328271e2b4ba7d875b222dcf)

In addition to variable values, the output of the
<filename>bitbake -e</filename> and
<filename>bitbake -e</filename>&nbsp;<replaceable>recipe</replaceable>
commands includes the following information:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>
The output starts with a tree listing all configuration
files and classes included globally, recursively listing
the files they include or inherit in turn.
Much of the behavior of the OpenEmbedded build system
(including the behavior of the
<link linkend='normal-recipe-build-tasks'>normal recipe build tasks</link>)
is implemented in the
<link linkend='ref-classes-base'><filename>base</filename></link>
class and the classes it inherits, rather than being built
into BitBake itself.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
After the variable values, all functions appear in the
output.
For shell functions, variables referenced within the
function body are expanded.
If a function has been modified using overrides or
using override-style operators like
<filename>_append</filename> and
<filename>_prepend</filename>, then the final assembled
function body appears in the output.
