rmdepcheck: use COPR to get dnf 5.4 for correct rich dep checks · 54383e9306

dnf 5.4 has proper rich dependency checking in repoclosure (yay). F43 only has dnf 5.2 (boo). Let's use the dnf team's COPR to get dnf 5.4 for rmdepcheck so we get the most correct results. This is guarded so it won't do anything inadvisable when the disk image bumps to f44. Signed-off-by: Ada...
