[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: container-native rpmdb format (Issue #2005)

[Demi Marie Obenour]

There are two approaches to fix this:

1. Use a storage engine that provides block-level copy-on-write, rather than file-level copy-on-write.  BTRFS, ZFS, and device-mapper satisfy this requirement, as does overlay2 on a filesystem supporting reflinks.  This _does not_ help image layer sizes, however.
2. Use a one-file-per-entry approach.
