The previous bin_package description was confusing: it would instruct to
use the git fetcher to extract the content of an RPM package using the
`subpath` option - but that's not possible as the git fetcher can be
used to clone a repository but not to do the extraction.
Update the description by telling what it really does and what it
doesn't do, and by giving an HTTPS+RPM example.
