postprocess: Add a symlink /usr/lib/sysimage/rpm to the rpmdb

Following on to:

- http://lists.rpm.org/pipermail/rpm-maint/2017-October/006681.html
- #1142
- openSUSE/libsolv#386

Write a symlink in `/usr/lib/sysimage/rpm` pointing to our current
`/usr/share/rpm` - this way clients can start looking for it there,
and then at some point we'll flip the symlink around and
have `/usr/share/rpm` pointing to the new location.

(Doing a hard swap now has upgrade implications)
