[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] rpm: fix rpm2cpio segmentation fault

When run rpm2cpio, it fails with segmentation fault. The root cause is
no macros "_db_path" and "_dbi_config*" defined, when query these macros
get nothing then cause segment fault.

Add patch to parse macro files first to fix this problem.

[YOCTO #3656]

+rpm2cpio fails on target with "Segmentation fault". Because macros
+"_dbpath" and "_dbi_config*" need to be defined, otherwise query these
+macros will cause segment fault.
+
+Parse config files first to fix this bug. If parse fails, give a warning.
