RHEL/Fedora package ops

v0.1.7

Counterpart to the `debian` pack for RHEL/CentOS/Fedora/Alma/Rocky: rpm inventory, dnf check-update, narrow install/remove actions for a single named package. Equivalent risk model to the apt counterpart.

Install

emisar pack install fetches this pack, re-validates it, and verifies its content hash against the --hash below — the exact bytes this page was rendered against, so a tampered copy is rejected — before copying it into the runner's packs dir. The command reloads a running daemon itself; no manual restart.
