	* installclasses/fedora.py: Implement getMethod/getBackend
	* installclasses/rhel.py: Likewise.

	* anaconda (Anaconda.setMethod): Use installclass to determine method
	(Anaconda.setBackend): And backend

	* installclass.py (BaseInstallClass.getMethod): Add a method to
	parse the method str and return an InstallMethod constructor
	(BaseInstallClass.getBackend): For backend as well
