[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add a better way to run and control buildroot policy (brp) scripts (Issue #2207)

The other shortcoming of brp scripts is that they're expected to run in parallel and they're getting ever increasingly complicated and brittle because of it. So going forward the whole mechanism needs a rethink - for many things you'd actually want a per file-type execution of something, with parallel execution controlled from C (think file classification and dependency generation). But I imagine there will always be a demand scripts that have a more holistic access to the buildroot than per-file too.
