[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] %{_target_cpu} value on i686 differes between 4.20 and 5.9* (Issue #3582)

[Panu Matilainen]

pmatilai created an issue (rpm-software-management/rpm#3582)

Sometime between mid-December and mid-January my snapshot builds started failing on i386: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/pmatilai/rpm-snapshot/builds/ with the following:

```
      stderr: 
        /usr/bin/pkg-config: line 8: /usr/bin/i386-redhat-linux-gnu-pkg-config: No such file or directory
```

This comes from pkg-config which on Fedora calls rpm (🤪 ) macro evaluation to determine the path of the actual script to call - in this case the actual file is /usr/bin/i686-redhat-linux-gnu-pkg-config. The relevant macro is `%{_target_cpu}` so that's what's now evaluating differently, and the likely cause being the rpmrc STL refactoring I did in the first half of December. 

Most likely this is a regression, but the rpmrc stuff being so old and strange, it's *possible* something was actually misbehaving earlier. 
Need to sort this out before 6.0 alpha though.
