[OE-core] Releases of BitBake to package for Fedora?

The bitbake API isn't really stable and has a reasonable amount of change,
so if you were to package it then there's a good chance it would be out of
date within six months and people who wanted to use the latest oe-core
release against the packaged bitbake would hit API version errors.  The
recommended usage is to bundle in some way bitbake and the metadata
(combo-layer, submodules, repo, whatever).

As such there are no tarballs.  There are branches for each version and
commits where the version is bumped, if you're really determined to package
a snapshot.
