rubygem-{bunny,moneta,ohai} package ownership

The packages look like they were retired after being orphaned for a few
fedora cycles. You'll need to resubmit them proper, but should be able
to base the new packages on the existing ones pre-retirement.  And in
the case of moneta, the package version is the same so that can just be
resubmitted as is.

If you need some help seeing these through (or w/ getting Chef in Fedora
in general), shout out on the ruby-sig mailing list [1] and we can help
you out.
