So I came back on this topic today and added an new API endpoint to pkgdb to
list all the packages retired on all branches of a given collection (ie:
'Fedora' (default) or 'Fedora EPEL').

This provides us the information in a few seconds :)

Up for review at:
https://github.com/fedora-infra/pkgdb2/pull/184

Will be part of the next release.
