[Feature] Better documentation of patch and patch-commit

[mrtnbroder]

• I'd be willing to implement this feature
• This feature can already be implemented through a plugin

Describe the user story

I was looking into patch and how it works, but the docs didnt give much info. The CLI also didnt. I had to look around to get an idea of it. I thought it worked similar like patch-package. However, it works differently.

Describe the solution you'd like

I was looking for the docs to make a PR with a better documenation of it but couldn't find it. Maybe its on a CMS or something.

Can we add more info about patch and patch-commit and how it works? (e.g. there is no mentioning of adding the patch: protocol to the package.json file)

Doc is currently here https://yarnpkg.com/features/protocols#patch. However, it would be worth to improve the CLI documentation for patch and patch-commit, help appreciated 😃
