documentation: BSP Developer's Guide fixes
- use linux-yocto instead of linux-yocto-stable in examples - change branch names to match linux-yocto usage - remove outdated 'wrs' where it appears Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@intel.com>

Other methods exist to accomplish grouping and defining configuration options.
