dev-manual: package add using facilities in oe-core only. 

Fixes [YOCTO #5408]

The developer's manual should only refer to functionality which
is available in oe-core.  Currently, this passage requires the
user to add a package from, and use facilities of, meta-oe.  This
fix describes how to use facilities in oe-core to the same end.

As a way of making it easier to generate and make
these IPK configuration files available on your
target, the <filename>meta-oe</filename> layer
provides a recipe called
<filename>distro-feed-configs</filename>, which
provides a package by the same name.
When you include this package into your image, it will
automatically generate and include a set of
<filename>*.conf</filename> files in the image's
<filename>/etc/opkg</filename> directory that will
provide your target's <filename>opkg</filename>
tool with any and all package databases your build will
generate.
The only catch is that this recipe cannot possibly
imagine your server's DNS name/IP address.
Consequently, somewhere in your configuration you need
to set a variable called
<filename>DISTRO_FEED_URI</filename> to point
target, simply define
<filename>FEED_DEPLOYDIR_BASE_URI</filename> to point
to your server and the location within the
document-root that contains the databases.
For example: if you are serving your packages over HTTP,
your server's IP address is 192.168.7.1, and your
databases are located in a directory called
document-root which contains the databases.
For example: if you are serving your packages over
HTTP, your server's IP address is 192.168.7.1, and
your databases are located in a directory called
<filename>BOARD-dir</filename> underneath your HTTP
server's document-root, you need to set
<filename>DISTRO_FEED_URI</filename> to
<filename>http://192.168.7.1/BOARD-dir</filename>.
<filename>FEED_DEPLOYDIR_BASE_URI</filename> to
<filename>http://192.168.7.1/BOARD-dir</filename> and
a set of configuration files will be generated for you
in your target to work with this feed.
