[pve-devel] [PATCH docs v3 1/5] package-repos: improve wording partly based on pmg-docs

[Christoph Heiss]

Some sentences are phrased better and more expansive in pmg-docs, so
take them from there and adapt them as needed.

Changes v1 -> v2:
  * deduplicate email/changelog paragraph, move to top
  * deduplicate enterprise repo introduction sentence
  * very slightly reword some phrases

Changes v2 -> v3:
  * fixed small typo (thanks, Sterzy!)
