DEPL — Subcomponents Package Inconsistency

In 6.4.7, (SubcomponentInstantiationDescription), an assembly can point
to another package to provide an instance of a subcomponent, using the
"package" reference to ComponentPackageDescription.

The resolution to issue 6047 changed the main "work product", the
package,
to contain a PackageConfiguration as the toplevel item, rather than a
ComponentPackageDescription.

For consistency, I suggest that SubcomponentInstantiationDescription
reference PackageConfiguration, too.

Proposed resolution:

In 6.4.7.3 (associations for SubcomponentInstantiationDescription),
change

package: ComponentPackageDescription [0..1]
Describes a package that provides an implementation for this
subcomponent instance.

to

package: PackageConfiguration [0..1]
The package that provides an implementation for this
subcomponent instance.
