Obsoletes line when the condition fails (>=20), but that's more to maintain
in the specfile, and it'd be much simpler to just not declare any
subpackaging for javadocs.
Then you can provide javadocs in all Fedora versions.
javadoc subpackages are still nice thing to have. Most of Java libraries
keep installing them in F21+ and there are no plans of dropping them.
