[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RPM 4.19.0 released! (Discussion #2672)

[Michal Domonkos]

This release brings a number of quality-of-life improvements for package authors and maintainers, most notably:
* New spec snippet support for [dynamic spec generation](https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/dynamic_specs.html)
* New `sysusers.d(5)` integration for automated [user and group handling](https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/users_and_groups.html)
* Proper shell-like globbing and escaping in `%files` and CLI
* Memory and address-space aware build resource allocation

Under the hood, especially in RPM's own build process department, the most notable changes are:
* New CMake build system, replacing Autotools
* Adoption of Linux containers in the test-suite, replacing Fakechroot
* Support for `find_package(rpm)` in CMake projects using RPM libraries
