I think there is a little confusion here. There are actually 2 issues:
 1) The Yocto 2.6 manual doesn't have the "Moving to the Yocto Project
2.6 Release" section to describe the changes that have been made from
2.5 -> 2.6 (
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.6/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#moving-to-the-yocto-project-2.5-release
). Oddly, this section *is* present in the "latest" mega manual.
 2) The second (unrelated) issue has to do with reporting 18.04 as a
supported host distro. I'm not as familiar with this one, so I'll let
someone else chime in.
