It was more of backports, but whatever. Adding changelog_limit
and that collapse_glibc_requires flag that was fooling smart,
in addition to the sha256 checksums and the lzma compression.
Plus the compatibility patches required to make it run at all.

There's nothing incompatible about the generated "repodata",
except for those extra tags (primary_lzma and rpm:distepoch) ?

Still seemed better than doing a separate rpm metadata format...
