ref-manual: Edits to the LINUX_VERSION_EXTENSION variable.

Applied Darren Hart's review comments.  Namely, use the
example from the linux-yocto recipes and not the custom
recipe.

You define this variable in the kernel recipe.
For example, the <filename>linux-yocto-custom.bb</filename>
kernel recipe found in
<filename>meta-skeleton/recipes-kernel/linux</filename>

For example, the linux-yocto kernel recipes all define
the variable as follows:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
LINUX_VERSION_EXTENSION ?= "-custom"
LINUX_VERSION_EXTENSION ?= "-yocto-${LINUX_KERNEL_TYPE}"
</literallayout>
Defining this variable essentially sets the
Linux kernel configuration item
