documentation: Added new description for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable.
Fixes [YOCTO #10183] Added a new variable entry for the PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable. With the introduction of the new PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable, many places in the mainstream YP documentation that referenced how to pass configure arguments using EXTRA_OECONF needed to also make mention of this new variable. I added many cross-references to the new variable.
