clean up a bit:

- delete not used patches
- delete odd manual file provides (/usr/bin/*) - rpm will generate them
- be sure to not forget to apply a patch by switching to %%autopatch
- delete very old and not needed nowadays Obsoletes and Conflicts
- use %%EVRD for more strict Requires and Provides like most other packages
- delete README.urpmi which is mostly useless now in dnf platforms
  (we decided that most people do not read such messages or may just miss them
   when a lot of packages are being installed)
