* Suggest using `--getfiles` by default for scratch builds -- it's useful. * Koji now waits for repos to get regenerated before subsequent builds. * Use modern tag names (like 25-main) in the examples. * Remove the info about building before the repo is ready -- no longer an issue. * Use an example package that we still ship.
* Use <br> instead of trailing space. * Jira is not an acronym.
* Versioning guidelines - seems superfluous with all the other versioning guides
out there (e.g. semver.org).

This PR adds instructions for how to use the new osg-htc/software-packaging repository, and overhauls the Software Development Process, Koji Workflow pages to remove a lot of the built-up cruft that no longer applies.
The OSG Build Tools and RPM Development Guide pages had smaller updates since they'd already been recently touched.
The "Software Development Process" page needed the most attention:
built-against-pkgsand hand-submitting the VMU DAG) have been replaced.The "Koji Workflow" page was more search-and-replace with some other tweaks along the way:
regen-repowas updated with how current versions of Koji do it -- manually waiting for a repo to regen before starting the next build is no longer necessary.--getfiles.The "OSG Build Tools" and "RPM Development Guide" docs had some smaller changes:
