Commit cd5d667e99f931504a512b591fcde7ed92cee344 split rpmuncompress out to a separate command with the implication it could be used as a standalone tool by packagers, but placed it into /usr/lib/rpm which makes it look like some special thing only to be called by rpm itself. Ditto with the double-underscore macro - it makes sense for rpm, but not packagers.
Let's just move it to the standard binary path so we can properly advertise it as a tool you can use. Just seeing how much crap it removes from our own test-suite suggests it's the sane thing to do. Add a note to the %{uncompress} macro pointing to this direction as well.
Fixes: #4148
