overview-manual: concepts: add details on package splitting
The package splitting section of the overview manual currently lacks any explanation of how package splitting is implemented and redirects to the package class, which is not really understandable for newcomers to the project. This patch adds a short explanation of what is done: * How the PACKAGES variable is defined. * How the FILES variable is defined. * How the two work together. * How to add a custom package. This should give enough details to a new user on what package splitting achieves and how to add a custom package.
