[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Use runuser instead of sudo for test-suite user changes (PR #3553)

[Panu Matilainen]

We don't need or want any of the sudo fanciness and privilege elevation here: we're already root inside the container and just want to run things as a different user. runuser is more than adequate for this purpose.

One such peculiarity is that apparently sudo re-expands its command, so \$PWD got evaluated to the PWD of the new shell. runuser does no such thing, but we can just as well hardcode a directory, $PWD is nothing special in this case.

Consolidate the lone runuser rpmdb export test to use runroot_user too now that it can.
