Orphaning the package via giving it to the orphan user does not allow
setting a reason for orphaning. That information is useful for
potential new maintainers. Recommend the use of the Orphan button
instead, which allows setting the reason.

Also, recommend reading those notices when considering unorphaning.

Fixes #103
