  gnu tar reject non-zero sizes [bsc#1269150]

  plugin into a new 'rpm-imaevmsign' subpackage. [jsc#PED-7246]
- Fix 'unexpected EOF' when using rpmbuild to install ELF binaries
  due to syntax error in /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip. (boo#1259215)
- Remove /var/lib/rpm migration scripting, retain an error if old
  location is found
