[Bug 2078313] Re: Remove badger on ppc64el from oracular

[Shengjing Zhu]

@paelzer your concerns are right. The -dev reverse deps may have
problem. However it depends on whether they use the broken part in
badger, or have tests for their usages of badger.

Removing all reverse deps is the safest way. But it can't be done easily
with the current arch:all model. Since the reverse needs to hardcode the
arch list in next upload.

OTOH, the rust packages use arch:any for the -dev package. It's safe for
the reverse. However it has its own problem that: duplicated packages
(which means wasting the storage). And the reverse can't use the other
part of the -dev which works on that arch.

Back to this badger package, IMO it only has limited flaky tests, which
may reveal some bugs on ppc64el, but it doesn't worth to convert the
-dev from arch:all -> arch:any.
