skeleton: clarify linux-yocto-custom workflow

It was pointed out that the kernel development documentation recommends
making a copy of linux-yocto-custom, while the comments in the recipe
itself suggest a bbappend.

To keep things consistent between these two sources, we update the
comment in the recipe itself to also recommend a copy (and rename).
