dev-manual/bmaptool.rst: simplify and fix instructions
- Remove duplicate instructions
- Detail how to run bmaptool directly if you installed it on your host
instead of building it through the ``bmaptool-native`` recipe,
as running "oe-run-native bmaptool-native bmaptool ..." won't work
in this case.
- Use "chmod a+w" instead of "chmod 666", better advice,
and only run "chmod" in the option that runs "oe-run-native"
