Removed the conflicts with and obsoletes for the driver packages

Browse source 
It does not work. Say, kernel 4.6.x does not support broadcom-wl version
5.x. However, installing kernel 4.6.x should not remove that driver
because the user might have a different kernel installed that supports
it.

It would be cleaner if the driver packages specified the minimum required
kernel versions, "kernel >= x.y.z" (the kernel has the appropriate
"Provides" for that). Same for the maximum kernel versions supported by
the driver.

Similar for the obsoletes: this kernel may provide the listed drivers
but we cannot be sure about other kernels the user might have installed.
A safer route seems to be not to require dkms-* directly but rather -
via "Requires: kmod(xxx)". Again, it is not the kernel's responsibility
to keep track of all this.

While at it, cleaned up the spec a bit more.
