luci-app-opkg: add warning about upgrading packages

It is a well-known fact that opkg doesn't check ABI-compatibility between dependencies and upgrading packages in a stable release is therefore not recommended. This commit adds a warning which should help especially new users find more information on why this is and avoiding soft-bricking their device.
