[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Host specific %_install_langs affects --root <customdir> installation (Issue #2623)

[Michal Domonkos]

> That's why I said you'd need to supply all the desired files yourself when using this CLI option as there's no way to just prepend/append paths to it.

Just to illustrate better how one could use this (in order to achieve your original objective):

```
# dnf install --releasever=38 --installroot=/rootfs rpm
[...]
# echo '%_foobar 123' > /etc/rpm/macros.foobar
# echo '%_foobar 456' > /rootfs/etc/rpm/macros.foobar
# rpm --eval '%_foobar'
123
# rpm --root /rootfs --eval '%_foobar'
123
# rpm --macros /rootfs/etc/rpm/macros.foobar --eval '%_foobar'
456
```
