Remove the Obsoletes: lines from the shared package except for CentOS 6

Due to every version of Percona Server (5.1, 5.5, 5.6 and PXC) having a
shared library package that Obsoletes: mysql-libs, upgrading from a
mysql-libs installation would use any available version to obsolete
mysql-libs, when in fact the intended package to replace it is the 5.0
version for CentOS 5 and the 5.1 version for CentOS 6.

After installing the percona repository, a yum upgrade would try to
replace mysql-libs with Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-shared-compat, which
would confuse users.

Solve this by removing all the Obsoletes: lines from the packages that
are not intended to replace mysql-libs *except when explicitely
installed*, and in the correct packages only Obsolete: for the correct
versions of CentOS.
