Update the documentation to describe how to depend on GLEP 81
packages with EAPI 8. There is no NSS module for resolving the
accounts installed in $SYSROOT, so acct-* packages might also need
need to be in $BROOT e.g. for fowners which directly calls chmod.

- BDEPEND so the build system can resolve names when building
packages in nonempty $SYSROOT at src_install time.

- IDEPEND so the build system can resolve names when installing
binary packages in nonempty $ROOT at pkg_preinst time.

- RDEPEND so the target system can use the accounts.
