2016-05-03README: Add correct email for Yocto documentation maintainertzanussi/kernel-dev-manual-fixesTom Zanussi

2016-05-03kernel-dev: Fix the locations of .config and source directoryTom Zanussi
The locations of the kernel .config file and source directory moved a couple releases ago; update the documentation accordingly. Also, add a note explaining how to expand variables, which serves a couple of purposes: * For curious readers, shows them how to demystify where these variables come from and how they're used. * For suspicious readers, shows them how they can verify that the variables in the documentation are actually correct. Fixes [YOCTO #9124]. Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com>
