[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Provide a way to opt out from automagic Python bytecompilation (#434)

[Miro Hrončok]

One can now use `%?disable_automagic_pybytecompile` to opt out from automagic Python bytecompilation outside of `/usr/lib(64)?/pythonX.Y`.

One can also use `%?enable_automagic_pybytecompile` to explicitly opt in, even tough this is currently still the default.

Automagic Python bytecompilation of files outside of Python's own directories (`/usr/lib(64)?/pythonX.Y`) with `/usr/bin/python` is error prone. For context, see this Fedora change [1], it describes all the problems and provides a longer explanation about why we are doing this.
