Clarify the definition and restrictions on Essential

Add a brief rationale for Essential to the section on Essential, moving
it from an earlier footnote.  Say that maintainers should take care in
adding any functionality to essential packages because it's very
difficult to remove such functionality later, moving some additional
text from the earlier footnote.

Closes: #479080
