[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Native support for separate build and source tree (aka vpath builds) (Discussion #2882)

[Vít Ondruch]

Fedora already has [`%{_vpath_builddir}` macro](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/blob/rawhide/f/macros.vpath) for such purpose. And [this](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/c/cbe746e311d5dbfd9c6d42fdfc4147220c0ad791) is how I migrated Ruby to out-of-source build using this macro.

However, there is also need for more then one build dir. AFAIK [Python](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python3.12/blob/rawhide/f/python3.12.spec) does two builds, one optimized and second with debug information. [Vim](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/vim/blob/rawhide/f/vim.spec) does 3 different builds (and it would be probably better to use separate build dirs for them).
