[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] 4.15 creates unreproducible rpm file magic headers (#934)

[Bernhard M. Wiedemann]

The base level of reproducibility just needs us to be able to use the same inputs (that includes the libmagic binary) to give the same output - like a mathematical function.
On top of that, you can add advanced levels - e.g. try to get noarch packages that are actually the same when built on different archs (is not always true with pngs coming out of image scalers and svg renderers) - and one can find [interesting](https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1109949) [bugs](https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1109541) with it.
