Keep flightctl-epel.repo unchanged for backwards compatibility. Add flightctl-epel9.repo (hardcoded to epel/9) and flightctl-epel10.repo (using $releasever_major) following the same approach EPEL itself uses for per-major-version repo files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

9 should be $releasever_major

I'll have to re-verify, but if I remember correctly, $releasever_major is dnf5 only, which is ultimately why we're in this rhel9/rhel10 separate repo mess

The existing
flightctl-epel.repois hardcoded toepel/9/. RHEL 10 uses DNF5 which supports$releasever_major, so the EL10 repo file follows the same pattern as EPEL 10 itself. EL9 stays hardcoded because$releasever_majoris not supported on DNF 4.14 (RHEL 9), and$releasevercan resolve to minor versions (e.g.9.2) on cloud-provisioned instances (RhBZ#2219796).Test plan
