Description

Coming from conan-io/conan#4918, I realized no reasons are given on this how to https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/howtos/cmake_install.html to use the `package()` instead fo the `build()`.

We could explain a little bit that and argument the following cases:

- Usage of ``conan create --keep-build``
- Usage of local development flow
