Uberpackager replaces packager

The transition from a single packager group to an entry level packager
group that can only commit to packages that the person owns and a
separate uberpackager group that can commit to everything has been made.
   At this point in time, people who are only in the packager group
should be able to commit only to packages for which they explicitly have
commit acls (owner or commit in Approved state in the packagedb).

People in uberpackager should be able to commit to any package which is
open to the uberpackager group.  As part of the update, all packages
which were previously opened to packager/cvsextras are now opened to
uberpackager.

This concludes all the steps needed for:

The next step in the plan is written up here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JesseKeating/PackageACLOpening

I'll let Casey Dahlin fill in a time frame for that and details on how
to opt-out of the acl opening.
