It's there:
# dnf list "*phonon*"
...
Available Packages
phonon-backend-vlc.x86_64
0.9.1-4.fc28 rpmfusion-free
So it's in the rpmfusion-free repo.
I had suggested asking google. I tried 'phonon-qt5-vlc rpm fc28' and
the first 5 hits were for phonon-qt5-backend-vlc-0.9.1-4.fc28.x86_64.rpm
from rpmfusion.
Quick and easy. This is specifically for qt5. The question now is
'does it do the job?'
