bug#50551: 28.0.50; Describe "package-menu-execute" better

[Rudolf Adamkovič via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors]

 
The documentation for "package-menu-execute" says: 
 
> Packages marked for installation are downloaded and installed; 
> packages marked for deletion are removed. 

The documentation should mention *upgrades* as well.
