[Fedora-packaging] Explicit "Requires" should (usually) be arch-specific

Since apparently a requirement for "foo" can be satisfied by any
available architecture for which a "foo" is available, "Requires" that
do not specify the architecture are unsafe for multilib systems (unless
the dependency really can be satisfied by any architecture--which does
not strike me as the most common case).
I think this bears mentioning in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Explicit_Requires
And I think the example there needs to add the architecture to be
correct.
