package_manager.py: set dnf's releasever setting from DISTRO_CODENAME

So that:

1) dnf does not complain anymore about releasever not being set and then fail
for the same reason;

2) it's possible to refer to $releasever in dnf package feed configuration
(repo paths in particular) without hardconding the release name (pyro, morty, etc.)
