We're currently using /root/.rpmmacros for some rpm configuration things in the test-suite because that avoids dealing with changing prefix, but this is now blocking various other things such as #3467.

My reading of https://docs.docker.com/build/building/variables/#scoping
suggests that we could now remove the second "ARG PREFIX" from the
make stage because it should be inherited in the FROM base thing, but
s*** breaks if I remove it, so we'll just *shrug* and let it be I guess.

This is the first step to fixing rpm-software-management#3521.

Signing key configuration is obviously something that belongs to the
user's macros, but lets get on with the times and use the new XDG config
directory for that.

The remaining references to ~/.rpmmacros in rpmmacro.at are related to
testing behavior with the old-style configuration and need to be preserved.

This is the fourth and final step to rpm-software-management#3521.

This override exists to make system rpmdb accessible in eg "make shell"
but it causes complications wrt the prefix (see below + next commits) and
also masks test bugs (see previous commit).

We can resurrect this functionality later on if we find solutions that
avoid the issues.

Instead of trying to inject the system rpmdb path into the test-image
in a prefix-independent manner, set + create an empty, test-suite
specific rpmdb path for all the tests to use by default. This dodges
the pesky prefix question and accidental test-dependencies on system
rpmdb. It should also allow us to optimize away a bunch of RPMDB_INIT's
in the tests later on, but that's an exercise for another day.

Keyring type is not something that would be user-specific in a real
world scenario anyhow.
