[OE-core] [PATCH 3/7] linux-yocto-custom: clarify bbappend versus copy in comments

The kernel development manual recommends making a copy of
linux-yocto-custom, while the comments in the recipe talk about
bbappends.
To synchronize the two, we remove the bbappend references from the
recipe and instead indicate that a copy should be updated.
