[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: %ifarch expression (Issue #3165)

[Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]

As discussed during the RPM Developers' Meetup during DevConf.cz:
please allow %ifarch to be used inline, i.e. make it an expression or provide an a new syntax for an expression.

The problem is that %ifarch is very verbose and requires at least 3 lines. It'd be nice to replace this by an inline expression for brevity and readability.

For example
```
%pytest \
%ifarch s390x
     || :  
%endif
```
could be replaced by:
```
%pytest %{ifarch s390x: || :}
```
