[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] appdata -> appstream, add support for metainfo files (#98)

These provides are specifically for packages providing AppStream files, which are either going to be `*.appdata.xml` or `*.metainfo.xml` files in `/usr/share/appdata` or `/usr/share/metainfo`.

The upstream AppStream specification mandates *.metainfo.xml files installed into `/usr/share/metainfo`, but there's still a large body of legacy AppStream files installed in the legacy location.

For now, let's support both under the new `appstream()` Provides.
