Copr just uses `mock-core-configs` package, and the `epel-*.cfg` files
there.

I believe that anyone who will need to do local builds (including Fedora
Copr) will be able to get the appropriate subscription [1], and so we'll
be able to change the epel-8 config from centos+epel to rhel+epel in
mock-core-configs.  Btw. there already are some `rhelepel-*` configs
(feel free to try them, as that's what will be in epel-*, see also [2]).

I also believe that we'll be able to have some subscription for
Fedora Copr builders that will allow us to continue using
mock-core-configs in default variant.

Cross-arch builds (--forcearch) will stop working till bz#1912847 is fixed, and
this would affect Copr.

EPEL content is built in Koji _against_ RHEL+EPEL repos.

I thought that this is normal situation (8.4 release is fresh), and that
CentOS 8 is supported till the end of this year - so please correct me if
I'm wrong but CentOS 8 should still get the 8.4 update?
