Subject: [PATCH] bitbake: bitbake-user-manual: Updated the [noexec] and
 [nostamp] flag descriptions

Fixes [YOCTO #10401]

Added some wording to clarify that setting these flags to "1"
causes the desired action.  Also, provided a cautionary note
about tasks depending on any [nostamp] task causes the task
to always be executed and could cause unnecessary rebuild time.

(Bitbake rev: b6a4a6147b9e455cc1fec37553fb577f187a2d73)
