(For more information about this issue, please see #194).
We need a short section to follow the prerequisites section (see #196) (i.e., as its own file). It should satisfy the following goals:
- explain what a distribution package is
- explain how a distribution package differs from import packages and modules
- use the terminology that the wider Python Packaging User Guide uses, so the terminology is familiar if the reader turns to another part of the guide
I also think it would be helpful if the section could illustrate each point with some kind of example, either a made-up example or a real-world example, if it's not too complicated.
