Answer:
The Quality Manual is no longer required by ISO 9001:2015, therefore the requirements for Quality Manual no longer exist. The article you are referring is written according to 2008 version of the standard and that is why it states all these requirements regarding the manual. For more information, s ee: The future of the Quality Manual in ISO 9001:2015 https://advisera.com/9001academy/knowledgebase/the-future-of-the-quality-manual-in-iso-90012015/
The fact that the manual is no longer required does not mean it's forbidden, the company can decide to keep the manual but now it has more freedom to tailor it according to its needs. So you can reference to the certain parts or features of your software in the manual or to reference to the software as a whole.
