[Feature] Flag a package out of date #376

This would be nice to have it work with OBS, see: https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/issues/10775

Zypper operates based on the repo metadata. We know about unneeded/orphaned packages; those which no longer occur in the repos nor have a replacement. If OBS introduces new flags or keywords in the metadata, we can think about adding support. But first OBS had to provide some concept for this.

You mean createrepo_c not OBS. @romulasry we are all just consumers of this standard.

@hennevogel Done.
