[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Package upgrades break if hardlinks got added (#1278)

Just found out that this only happens with `%_minimize_writes` enabled, as otherwise even unchanged files are recreated correctly as hardlinks.

```
D: create     100644  2 (   0,   0)     0 /usr/file1;5ef086f0
D: touch      100644  2 (   0,   0)     8 /usr/file2
```
vs.

```
D: create     100644  2 (   0,   0)     0 /usr/file1;5ef09669
D: create     100644  2 (   0,   0)     8 /usr/file2;5ef09669
```

`%_minimize_writes` is the default for SSDs (and on openSUSE in general) though.
