Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, when trying to copy binaries, nothing explains the syntax and functionality of _aggregate or _link.

Describe the solution you'd like

Having an up-to-date section that explains the files in-depth.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None.

Additional context

There is a small section in the openSUSE Wiki (see here). However, this misses for example how to copy container binaries.

The concept is also already named in the User Manual here but not explained.

If the names of the source packages are not identical one needs to use a <package> element in the _aggregate.

There is some information about _link in https://github.com/openSUSE/osc/issues/974
