commit 6496d2727c79c4238925502915465d6c4b0484bf
Author: Steve Lawrence <sl...@apache.org>

    Add a "daffodil" alias to the RPM
    
    The official name of the Daffodil RPM is "apache-daffodil", which means
    this intuitive command to install the RPM with dnf does not work:
    
        dnf install daffodil
    
    Instead you need to install using the full name:
    
        dnf install apache-daffodil
    
    To support both commands, adds a "Provides: daffodil" tag to the RPM
    build configuration, which essentially adds an alias so that users can
    dnf install either "daffodil" or "apache-daffodil".
