[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Typecheck header tags match our definitions prior to import (#242, #414) (dfd236d)

Tagno's are sorted: make sure every tagno is larger than its predecessor, smaller than its successor, as well is within defined range(s) to harden tagno values sufficiently to risk overriding the type field.

The signature header, and accesses of the metadata header before the digest is verified are the only cases that are "risky". The signature tagno's are a speshully well known enumerated set, mandatory digest verification of the metadata header, and the fuzz busters will be history.
