sdk-manual: Added note about nullpointer error for launch eclipse 

Fixes [YOCTO #10714]

Apparently there is some issues with GTK3 libraries for the Mars
Eclipse version.  The note provides a workaround that requires
editing the eclipse.ini file.

(From yocto-docs rev: f940d5d3f7bf446af8f3c7cec5958c8395425a69)

If you experience a NullPointer Exception after
launch Eclipse or the debugger from within Eclipse,
try adding the following
to your <filename>eclipse.ini</filename> file,
which is located in the directory in which you
unpacked the Eclipse tar file:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
--launcher.GTK_version
