[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add a version parsing and comparison API to librpmio (#1221)

[Florian Festi]

Overall this looks good. I am wondering what all the malloc and free costs us as we might do a few version comparisons during a transaction. Probably not enough to actually worry. Converting the EVR of the rpmds object just for comparison seems kinda weird. I am fine with this as a first step but we should consider moving the rpmds to use versions from the start. Which asks the question how this relates to rpmsid...
That's not something we want to get into right now but we might want to think about in the 4.17 time frame. For now it is great we have something like this at all.
