ref-manual: Added KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME change to 2.2 migration
The fact that the OpenEmbedded build system can now build
multiple image types caused the KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME variable
to have the KERNEL_IMAGETYPE portion removed. This could cause
existing recipes that use the KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME variable
directly issues. I added a section indicating that the user
should address those recipes to avoid problems.
