Could it be an idea to check if /usr/bin/dnf exists (or if dnf can be found in
$PATH) before calling dnf and if not a) warn the user and b) switch back to yum?

This would make mock run out of the box for RHEL/EPEL users as well.

Mock needs to check if /usr/bin/dnf is a file instead of a symlink as well since I've created a symlink on my system. (a little bit strange though)
