[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Implement a table-like shortcut to rpm macros in Lua (#1398)

Hmm. I fail to see the problem here, it's just a shortcut for building that string yourself, ie these two should be equal:

```
res = rpm.expand('%foo'..' '..opt..' '..arg1..' '..arg2)
res = macro.foo(opt, arg1, arg2)
```

We could of course have the latter understand other forms too, such as passing (opt, arg) tables (which again are just automatically flattened to the actual macro string).
