updated rpm-ostree composes running again

[Colin Walters]

Hi, just a quick note for those of you tracking the rpm-ostree rawhide 
composes from:
http://rpm-ostree.cloud.fedoraproject.org/#/

The tree composes are running again now, they'd been broken for a week 
or so.

The reason the compose broke was due to this bug causing a cascade:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=705443

And then fedora-release being in the bootstrap set was problematic 
since we wanted to install generic-release later (because of 
shadow-utils, which has a not-in-Fedora patch).  That required:
https://github.com/cgwalters/fedora-atomic/commit/bc30722b246a04e5fce4104cc718a2806f20fe18

This in turn triggered a latent bug in rpm-ostree, since it has a hack 
to move $chroot/etc/yum.repos.d out of the way to stick with the host's 
repo configs, but the hack had been broken by a code reorganization, 
then it became necessary again:
https://github.com/cgwalters/rpm-ostree/commit/d0484276185dcd8d1c1572d0c8b9f2f38ce3e910

I always think it's interesting to see some of the details of why a 
system failed - it gives a good insight into how things work under the 
hood.
