This is to fix a part of #3966. I am not sure if the semantics are actually correct or if it's even more confusing, please consider that before merging :)

Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @steveklabnik (or someone else) soon.

If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes.

Please see the contribution instructions for more information.

I believe the docs are technically correct, albeit a bit confusing.

Membership is infered based on path dependencies. That is, if the root of workspace has a path dependency it is included as a member of the workspace, even if it is not in members list.

In case of a virtual manifest, you don't have any dependencies, so the set of inferred members is empty.

So what we want to say here is:

"additional non path-dependency members for usual manifest and all members for vritual manifest".

Not sure how to express this clearly and concisely :)
