[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Also apply signatures to config files (#374)

So from the documentation at http://ftp.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-inside-files-list-directives.html I take that the file is neither packaged nor installed. Since it's not packaged, the RPM also doesn't carry a signature and we cannot write a signature out. If someone wants to write signatures out for %config files by activating the macro, he needs to be aware that these are mutable files and deal with the fact that their signature may get lost or end up being wrong. a %ghost file is then more or less a case of a %config file that will never have a signature written out.
