[Libosinfo] [osinfo-db PATCH] centos7: Add CentOS 7 entry

"centos7" is the preferred way to display and advertise CentOS 7, mainly
because CentOS does not support pointing releases at all.

After talking with Jim Perrin, a CentOS board member, we've decided that
the change from centos7.0 to centos7 would be the way to go.

As we can't break backward compatibility, we can't just rename
centos-7.0.xml.in to centos-7.xml.in and adjust the bits accordingly.
Knowing that, the path to take is creating a new centos-7.xml.in entry
that contains exactly the same content of centos-7.0.xml.in, adjust the
bits in the new entry and change centos-7.0 to "clone" centos-7.

Although this is not the most elegant solution, it ensures we properly
advertise CentOS in the way its community wants and also do not break
backward compatibility.
