Documentation on compiling in container

I posted this morning on a compiling exercise conducted within the "console" container:
https://bkhome.org/news/201910/xorg-and-drivers-upgraded-in-pyro.html
I have added notes about how to compile source packages in a container, to the "Using Easy Containers" page:
https://easyos.org/user/using-easy-containers.html
Note, I could have taken a snapshot of the main desktop, then
compiled on the main desktop, however, apart from not wanting to clutter
up the main desktop, there may be a problem with Xorg becoming unusable
partway through, due to mismatch between Xorg server and the driver
versions -- especially as it was a big job and I powered off overnight
and continued the next day.
