Subject: [PATCH] Remove capabilities instead of setting empty caps via.
 --setcaps

If a file in a package does not have any capabilities rpm --setcaps should
remove capabilities of the file. Prior to this patch capabilities of the file
were set as empty.

Empty capabilities mean more than no capabilities. A file with no capabilities
can inherit capabilities, but file with empty capabilities can not.

When ever package does not have any capabilities set %|FILECAPS? is false.
If some files have capabilities, %|FILECAPS? is true but %{FILECAPS} is ''
when the file does not have capabilities and '= <capstring>' when there is some.
