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.
