What problem does it solve?

How should it be used?

If you want to use Helix Publishing Pipeline which is allows Helix solutions to be published as a single unit, with content from modules (like views and config patches) being automatically included. but in order to exclude Sitecore assemblies from being published, you will need to include the nuget package you asked for.

See from the Git Repo:

Excluding Sitecore assemblies In many cases it may be desirable to exclude from publish the assemblies that ship with Sitecore, either to reduce the size of the deployment artifact, or to reduce the chance of overriding assemblies with incorrect versions.

Helix Publishing Pipeline supports excluding Sitecore assemblies either individually, from Sitecore Assemblies NuGet packages (available on the sc-packages feed, e.g. Sitecore.Assemblies.Platform) or from assembly lists (text lists for each release, available from SDN).

It Provides the SitecoreAssemblies item group for assemblies that ship with the main Sitecore platform roles (CM/CD/etc), which should be excluded from deployment.

Here are some examples:
