add sparse url in cargo package guide (#26937)

Hello,

The current package guide for cargo gives you only the git index, with
the HTTP Index stabilized being used as default for crates.io and being
better for most use-cases.

However, it's not documented that gitea supports the sparse spec, and it
does not require the _crates-index git repo for the sparse api.

I personally think we should push users to use the sparse instead of the
git repository. (Even let users disable crates-index repos if they only
want to use sparse)

## Git vs Sparse
Currently, cargo supports two ways for fetching crates in a registry: Git index & sparse index.
Sparse index is the newest method and offers better performance when updating crates compared to git.
Since Rust 1.68, sparse is the default method for crates.io.
