Fedora: Patches in Forge macros - Auto macros - Detached rpm changelogs

[Ben Cotton]

Hi Robert-André and Go SIG,

There has been no progress on the Patches in Forge macros change[1],
so FESCo deferred it to Fedora 35. Since nim hasn't been seen in a
while and you were interested in getting this implemented, would you
be willing to take this on?

FESCo suggested one approach might be to split the forge macros into a
separate package. This would allow them to be updated without
redhat-rpm-config maintainers approval.

Thanks,
BC

Sorry I know nothing about lua and macros syntax. Nim is the only one
who could give his insight about these.
