[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Implement a separate lock for the keystore (PR #4123)

[Panu Matilainen]

pmatilai left a comment (rpm-software-management/rpm#4123)

So the remaining question is the backwards compatibility. With this "separate lock" approach we have basically three options for apps that aren't using the new keyring lock API:
1) detect the wrong lock type use and explicitly error out (aka strictly correct)
2) let the app silently use the wrong lock, the approach taken in this PR (aka strictly incorrect :smile: )
3) detect and warn about the incompatibility, but allow it to work

Option 1) seems impossible in what is supposed to be a non-breaking minor update. 2) seems plain wrong, but then 3) seems to  also be against the non-breaking spirit. The thing is, this just isn't a compatible change.
