[FastTrack] Proposal: gate all stable release updates on rmdepcheck

I proposed this recently on devel@ and discourse. Feedback was overall pretty positive, but there was a general feeling that it'd be a good idea to run it by FESCo.

I don't want to put this through the Change process, as I feel it's too heavy and this is not tied to the release cycle. It's a very trivial change to make in technical terms - it'd just be adding a new policy to https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/ansible/src/branch/main/roles/openshift-apps/greenwave/templates/fedora.yaml.j2 like this:

--- !Policy
id: "kojibuild_bodhipush_rmdepcheck"
{{ product_versions(rawhide='false', branched='false', eln='false') }}
decision_contexts:
  - bodhi_update_push_testing
  - bodhi_update_push_testing_critpath
  - bodhi_update_push_stable
  - bodhi_update_push_stable_critpath
subject_type: koji_build
rules:
  - !PassingTestCaseRule {test_case_name: fedora-ci.koji-build.rmdepcheck.functional}

reverting it would be similarly easy: just remove the rule. I'm asking for FESCo approval to go ahead and try this and see how it goes; if it causes too many problems I'll revert it, or FESCo can request that it be reverted.

I'll also nominate this for fast-track. I think some fesco members are on vacation and unlikely to vote, but we don't have to wait a whole week.
