With `libsolv` > libsolv-0.7.15-1.fc33.x86_64.rpm `rpm-ostree upgrade` removes all overrides made by the user:

This issue is present in all versions, including `rpm-ostree-2021.1-3.fc33` (see bodhi link)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run `rpm-ostree upgrade`
Actual Results:  
Overrided packages are removed. System cannot upgrade on versions less than `rpm-ostree-2021.1-3.fc33`

Expected Results:  
System upgrades smoothly

I have discovered a temporary, hacky fix:

```sh
cd Downloads
wget https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/rpm-ostree/2021.1/3.fc33/x86_64/rpm-ostree-2021.1-3.fc33.x86_64.rpm && wget https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/rpm-ostree/2021.1/3.fc33/x86_64/rpm-ostree-libs-2021.1-3.fc33.x86_64.rpm && wget https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/libsolv/0.7.15/1.fc33/x86_64/libsolv-0.7.15-1.fc33.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm-ostree usroverlay && sudo rpm -Uvh rpm-ostree-{,libs-}*.rpm
systemctl restart rpm-ostreed.service
rpm-ostree override replace libsolv-0.7.15-1.fc33.x86_64.rpm
```

If you are using Silverblue, you can rollback to 33.20210203.0 (Base Commit: 8776ab1b7ba55c1455c38f76ae4f050a26e6489029e91f76544e551998001667, libsolv 0.7.15-1.fc33), reboot and upgrade to apply the patch.
