documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-common-tasks.xml: moved BBMASK 

Per Richard Purdie's suggestion, I moved the discussion on using
BBMASK out from the "Customizing Images" section and placed it into
a section of its own titled "Excluding Packages from the Build."

(From yocto-docs rev: edb01b30779117f92e710b8afefa9a5d8a3e78fa)

It is possible to filter or mask out <filename>.bb</filename> and
<filename>.bbappend</filename> files such that BitBake ignores them during
the build.
You can do this by providing an expression with the
<filename><ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#var-BBMASK'>BBMASK</ulink></filename>
variable.
Here is an example:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
BBMASK = ".*/meta-mymachine/recipes-maybe/"

in the directory that matches the expression are ignored during the build
