[bitbake-devel] bitbake user manual: "Variable Flags" section seems to need updating

  the "Variable Flags" section of the bitbake user manual seems to be
incomplete:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#variable-flags

at the very least, i see additional task flags such as "selfstamp",
"lockfiles", "stamp-base" and more, just from having stumbled across
this:

lib/toaster/orm/fixtures/orm_views_testdata.json:
"variable_value": "doc defaultval _append _prepend deps depends
lockfiles type vardepsexclude vardeps vardepvalue file-checksums
python func task export unexport noexec nostamp dirs cleandirs
sstate-lockfile-shared prefuncs postfuncs export_func deptask rdeptask
recrdeptask nodeprrecs stamp-base stamp-extra-info",

but i don't know enough about some of those flags to know what to add
for them (if anything).
