[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Enable malloc checking with random perturb in the test-suite (PR #2218)

[Panu Matilainen]

Glibc provides low-cost memory sanity checking on it's own, it'd be foolish not to take advantage of this in the test-suite for our CI. As this introduces a level of randomness to the system, record the environment in a file (in particular, glibc.malloc.perturb value) to make possible failures reproducable.

This is effective for glibc >= 2.34 only, in older versions the mechanism to enable differs.

Based on initial patch by Elia Pinto.
