doc: west: bump 'manifest: version:' docs

Adjust these for 0.10. This version parses differently as a string vs.
as a float. Document that quoting the value avoids the issue. Make
some other adjustments and improvements for clarity.

``version`` is 0.9, which corresponds to west version 0.9. ``version`` is 0.10, which is supported by west version v0.10.x.
The ``version`` value may be 0.7, 0.8, or 0.9. The ``version`` value may be ``"0.7"``, ``"0.8"``, ``"0.9"``, or ``"0.10"``.
West v0.10.x can load manifests with any of these ``version`` values, while
west v0.9.x can only load versions up to ``"0.9"``, and so on.
If a later version of west, say version ``21.0``, includes changes to the West halts with an error if you ask it to load a manifest file written in a
manifest schema that cannot be parsed by west 0.7, then setting ``version: version it cannot handle.
21.0`` will cause west to print an error when attempting to parse the manifest
data. Quoting the ``version`` value as shown above forces the YAML parser to treat
it as a string. Without quotes, ``0.10`` in YAML is just the floating point
value ``0.1``. You can omit the quotes if the value is the same when cast to
string, but it's best to include them. Always use quotes if you're not sure.
