c596b56bc7 doc/guide: Reword CONFLICTS usage suggestions
Despite most CONFLICTS are automatically detected at package
installation time it is still a good idea to manually mark CONFLICTS
in order to fail as early as possible instead e.g. of failing at
package installation time after possibly installing several (maybe
not needed) dependencies.

35ab598076 doc/guide: Use &*pkgsrc* XML entities instead of hardcoding them
Since the latest pkgsrc stable releases htdocs/share/xml/misc.ent had several
XML pkgsrc related entities added and picked up via htdocs-share-*.tar.gz
distfile.

Use them instead of hardcoding a particular stable branch/release (e.g. 2009Q1
or 2016Q4) or using `pkgsrc-20xxQy' (Yay! Now `The pkgsrc guide' should be ready
for the next century!).
