Proposal: fedora-release-rawhide subpackage

Please do so.  Entirely too many general users click-enable rawhide and
never even see the comments in the .repo file at all.   They are never
presented a warning or anything of the sort.

Split it into an optional package, and anyone that understands what it is
will easily be able to install.
