What would you like to be added: a yum repo

Why is this needed: currently installing rpm means a user needs to search for the latest release and download the rpm package from s3 and then install it locally. once installed the user needs to manually return every so often to check whether a new release has appeared on the github release page.

with a yum repo these manually labourious step can be 2 commands

  1. sudo yum install -y lens
  2. sudo yum -y update # which is a catchall to update all packages. this means that if the user is updating for some security or bug issue or similar, the new lens release will automatically be updated

Environment you are Lens application on: fedora

@marafa @Nokel81 I'd be interesting in looking into packaging and adding lens to the Fedora repos Can anyone tell me where to find the spec file that is used to generate the rpm that is distributed at https://k8slens.dev/? Having that would make the process much easier
