[Distutils] Proposed patch for bdist_rpm

Hello,

I have attached a patch that fixes a bug present both in Red Hat's bugzilla
and on sourceforge:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=123598
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=957381&group_id=5470&atid=105470

The original, proposed patch only deals with debuginfo packages. Debuginfo
packages are created purely from macros, and there is no guarantee some other
rpm-based packager would not choose to use a similar approach to solve another
problem (or they wouldn't rename debuginfo to something else).

The patch adds the ability to predict which rpms are built out of a spec file
by querying the spec file (rpm -q --specfile foo.spec).

Please consider it and let me know what you think. I have included the patch
in the latest Rawhide hoping to get more feedback. Here's a link to the
patched python:

Thanks,
Misa
