Draft docs PR adding a preview page for reusing packages between builds and preparing the 5.11.0 release. Marked draft by the author on 2025-10-01; the same page was merged via #920 and shipped in 5.11.0, so the PR is superseded.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The author marked it draft on 2025-10-01 ('so we can discuss proper solutions here') with no activity since, and the exact content was already merged as #920 ('docs: add common page reuse packages between builds') and released in 5.11.0 per the changelog entry dated 2025-10-01. The PR's purpose is fully realized elsewhere, making it irrelevant beyond its age.
