The Buildroot manual was already providing some details on how to
integrate Cargo packages, and those details now need to be updated
with a proper documentation for the cargo-package infrastructure, as
well as updates related to vendoring support, which affects how
dependencies are handled.
In addition, now that we have vendoring support for Cargo packages,
let's rewrite the dependency management section in a more accurate
way.
We drop the part about the local cache of the registry, because
+CARGO_HOME+ in Buildroot points to $(HOST_DIR)/share/cargo, which is
not shared between builds nor preserved accross builds, so its effect
as a cache is limited.
