The attached patch against yum 2.0.6 adds an excludedocs option.
Specifying "excludedocs=1" in the confid file makes yum exclude the docs
from the rpm install (like rpm --excludedocs).
It doesn't work on some badly written RPMs which either don't mark the
docs as documentation or expect the docs to always be installed, but
that's a problem with the RPMs themselves, not with yum.
