[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RPM with Copy on Write (#1470)

[Demi Marie Obenour]

> I will take some time to summarize more thoughts in https://hackmd.io/@chantra/BJ1Hedw0F once I am done with experimenting with this WIP.

If (as this document implies) the entire non-transcoded file is buffered on disk, things are *far* simpler.  The `RPMTAG_PAYLOADDIGESTALT` entry can be used, which allows standard RPM tools to verify the signature.  Furthermore, the file can be checked against an additional metadata entry.
