[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add separate build configuration (%conf) section to spec (PR #1932)

[Panu Matilainen]

To elaborate on the background a bit: for many packages the actual compilation and installation steps are just redundant "make, make install" equivalent boilerplate that could be autofilled from macros. It's the configuration where things become project specific real fast.. Yes, some simple packages can make do with just plain "%configure" or equivalent ("cmake" and whatnot) and that could be autofilled too, but this is the step that almost always requires some project specific enable/disable flags and such. As long as the configuration is done as part of %build, there's no way to autofill one but not the other.
