[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Fix rename() calls in lib/rpmdb.c (#1754)

[Florian Festi]

Sorry, I understand this was a lot of work to do, but this is not the way to deal with this. We are using `rename` for a reason: To replace the database as atomically as possible.
The issue here is that this setup is using a separate file systems for `/var/lib/rpm` which we are trying to replace. Just build the docker container differently.
We might consider a option to build the new rpm database within a sub directory of `/var/lib/rpm` and then move it up in place file by file. But we really don't want some 300 lines of new code just to copy files around.

Closing.
