Currently we allow to retire packages in Branched even if they are not
retired in Rawhide. Today I realized that if a package is retired in
Branched (i.e. it will be blocked in f21), it will also not be shipped in
Rawhide, even if it is not retired there, because currently if it is
blocked in f21 it is also blocked in f22. It might make sense to only
retire packages in Branched to not ship packages with broken deps, like it
is currently proposed. However this does not mean that the package should
be retired in Rawhide, to allow it being fixed for the next release.
Therefore we should decide if we:
1) Allow retirement in Branched only for packages retired in Rawhide
2) Unblock packages in f22 if they are only retired in f21
