[R-sig-Fedora] dependencies for building R

[Tom Callaway]

sudo dnf --enablerepo="*-source" builddep R

This will look at the Fedora R source package (from the Fedora source
repositories, normally disabled) and install all the BuildRequires it
specifies.

I can't remember off hand if the "builddep" plug-in automatically enables
the source repos these days, so that bit might be a no-op, but it's not
harmful.

P.S. I assume you have a solid reason to build your own, but if you would
like to see changes to the Fedora R package, my inbox is always open. :)
