[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: support isolation between %prep/%build/%install/%check (Issue #3050)

[Panu Matilainen]

Ideally, the build scriptlets would be isolated from each other:
- %prep unpacks the source, and  %build takes place in a separate directory against a read-only source. Obviously not all software can be built outside the source tree, but this would be a nice addon to vpath builds (#2985)
- %install wipes buildroot on start, so %build cannot accidentally install stuff. But ideally %install should run with a read-only build directory - install should install, not build. This would've caught #3024. 
- %check should run with read-only buildroot to prevent tests from affecting packaged content. It probably does need writable build-dir because those tests do need to write someplace.
