[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Obsoleted-by: would be useful in some cases (#1768)

> I'm not sure what problem this solves. It sounds like the actual problem is that you want `hwloc1` and `hwloc2` to be parallel installable on RHEL 8.3. This is pretty much a distro policy issue, and while RPM provides mechanisms for solving this problem without needing `Obsoleted-by`, it's up to the distro to use that.

Different sonames can be packaged in packages with different names
