Document static reachability analysis behavior for excluded paths

Orin Naamanrequested to merge
docs-sra-excluded-paths-behavior into master

What does this MR do and why?

Documents the expected behavior of static reachability analysis when dependencies are located in excluded directories.

We mark those packages as not_found to respect user intent and reduce FPs. It also improves scan efficiency by not analyzing non-prod code paths.
