[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Upstream debuginfo enablement (PR #3040)

[Florian Festi]

! This removes the %ifnarch noarch check. We need to find a solution for this before merging (or decise it is just an optimization we don't really need)

All these years, enabling debuginfo has required distros to hijack the spec %install section with a macro like this:

    %install %{?_enable_debug_packages:%{?buildsubdir:%{debug_package}}}\
    %%install\
    %{nil}

This for a widely used, longtime upstream supported feature is just gross, and also very non-obvious, feeble and whatnot. And totally prevents the new append/prepend options from being used with %install.

Turn this isto a proper macro that drops the package definition into a .SPECPART file. This way debuginfo can be part of the %install script without messing up the parsing.

Fixes: #2204
Fixes: #1878
