ref-manual: Updated the S variable description.

Fixes [YOCTO #8542]

I updated the description with a new example specific to Git.
When you use Git, you have to specifically set the S directory
for things to work.

This next example assumes Git, which means the default
directory is <filename>${WORKDIR}/git</filename>.
Consequently, you must explicitly set
<filename>S</filename> so the source can be located:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
SRC_URI = "git://path/to/repo.git"
S = "${WORKDIR}/git"
