rpm: reduce package dependencies and add -client-xlators
Restructuring the RPM packages in order to reduce the dependencies that get installed for glusterfs-api (mainly on request for Qemu hosts). The dependencies of these packages look roughly like this: .------------------. | glusterfs-server | '-------+----------' |\ | \ | '---------------+--------------------. | | | | v v | .----------------. .---------------. | | glusterfs-fuse | | glusterfs-api | | '--------+-------' '------+--------' | /| /| | / | / | | / | / | | / | / | | .-----------+----=---------------' | |/ | | v v v .-----------. .--------------------------. | glusterfs | | glusterfs-client-xlators | '-----------' '--------------------------' With this structure, users can install glusterfs-server, glusterfs-fuse or glusterfs-api (libgfapi) without getting any unneeded xlators or other scripts/binaries. The "glusterfs" and "glusterfsd" binary (symlinked) is now part of the glusterfs-fuse package (moved from glusterfs). This does not make a difference for glusterfs-server installations, because a server installation always needs the glusterfs-fuse package for doing internal mounts. The advantage is that glusterfs-api does not pull in any executables that get into the $PATH. This has caused confusion before when people tried to remove the (wrongly assumed) server-only "glusterfsd" binaries.
