Packagers: incomplete Obsoletes and undead packages

This is about Rawhide.

The list for F21 is similar, which is especially strange with regard to
any packages that should be marked as dead in dist git already then.


"Dead" = a dead.package file in dist git exists, but builds of the package
are still found in the repo(s). Package has not been retired fully yet.

"Undead" = no dead.package file in dist git found.

"Only obsolete subpackages" = non-trivial, but for some of those cases
there are really some missing Obsoletes tags and an incomplete set of
builds is left in the repo (e.g. a -devel subpkg but its base pkg is
obsoleted).
