I agree with Seth that there would be significant utility in having
repodata readily available for brew builds.  I suggest that for regular
builds the repodata live at /data/repodata within the package dir.  For
scratch builds, the repodata directory could live right inside the
task_123456 dir.

I think Mike is right that if we do add repodata creation, having it on
the hub would make the most sense.
