[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Some script interpreter dependencies are not created due to wrong libmagic results (Issue #2936)

[Florian Festi]

Moved from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2255474

For instance, flatseal doesn't get a /usr/bin/gjs dependency despite having an executable /usr/bin/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal script with #!/usr/bin/gjs :

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=36557976

FWIW, file(1) identifies this script as "Java source", apparently because of the following rule in magic(4) which seems overly broad:

```
# Java source
0       regex   \^import.*;$    Java source
!:mime  text/x-java
```

Shouldn't RPM identify any executable text file starting with a shebang as a script and generate a dependency accordingly?

Reproducible: Always
