2016-01-07poky.ent: Fixed POKYVERSION variable.Scott Rifenbark
Turns out this variable was accidentally incremented to "15.0.0" during the release. I did this because of skipping the YP 1.9 release. The variable got wrapped into the tarball as the incorrect "15.0.0". This could be issues for anyone starting with a set of manuals generated from the tarball release. I updated the value in the yocto-docs jethro branch and rebuilt the dev-manual where the error was seven times. Also rebuilt the mega-manual. Both corrected versions are available on the website under the 2.0 set of manuals.
