The rescue mode has always been on the traditional installer images,

Unfortunately there is no rescue option on the Fedora Linux Workstation
installer just the Server and the Everything.
Is this a part of Anaconda or a different package in Fedora Linux?

Rescue is an Anaconda feature:

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/pyanaconda/rescue.py

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/docs/rescue.rst

It is not supported on live media since most of the steps just don't
make sense -- live already sets up the network and you should be able to
use the regular desktop tools to mount your existing partitions.

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/blob/master/data/liveinst/liveinst#L93

True, but the Live image needs something like a command like "fedora-prepare-rescue-image" or something like that that just do what the Fedora rescue option do and mount what it can find on /mnt/sysimage.

The steps to mount a complete /mnt/sysimage are a more than a few and it could help a lot not needing to type many things that an untrained person could make a big mistake.
