ref-manual: Fixed internal links and links to dev-manual

Browse Source 
Dev-manual title has changed to the Yocto Project Development Tasks
Manual.  I fixed these links.  Also, had to fix a couple links
that were in an external <ulink> style whereas they should have
been in an internal style (<link>).

(From yocto-docs rev: da5317f802975eaf6b2c5d4026892e5f2051760a)

One useful feature for certain Source Code Manager (SCM) fetchers is the ability to
"auto-update" when the upstream SCM changes version.
Since this ability requires certain functionality from the SCM, not all
systems support it.
Currently Subversion, Bazaar and to a limited extent, Git support the ability to "auto-update".
