[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Introduce an rpm-controlled per-build directory (PR #2885)

> These details are nowhere near fully thought through, and are certainly debatable and open/subject to change. In my initial patch buildroot was always BUILDROOT, but then experimenting with the vpath build stuff and your own mention about potentially needing multiple build directories made me think perhaps it should match the build directory name, and those are commonly named by the target tuple.

While I think multiple directories for vpath builds are useful, if `BUILDROOT` is still the image of what will be installed on the resulting system, then my current thinking is that there should be only one destination, where everything should be parallel installable if possible. But maybe you had the `curl` example with `RemovePathPostfixes` on your mind which could be legitimate reason.
