If we're just going to point people to fl:2-qa, it's time to promote
to release.

I understand that at this point, PackageKit is no worse than it has
ever been in any respect, and in most cases better.  It's not like
there wasn't significant memory usage before, and several sources
of extra memory use have been cleaned up.

Perfect is the enemy of good enough.  I'd like to understand why it
isn't time to promote now.
