[Skiboot] [PATCH] opal-ci: Force mambo rpm install on fedora-rawhide

Starting with RPM v6, "packages built with RPM < 4.14.0 cannot be
verified due to their use of weak, obsolete MD5 and SHA1 digests." [1]

So, our ancient p9 mambo package is now failing to install on
fedora-rawhide. Use the suggested workaround of setting
%_pkgverify_flags to 0 to restore the old behavior.
