[Based on rpm.org e64bf5b9 by Panu Matilainen.] The current behavior of %config(noreplace) creates a .rpmnewfile iff the type of the current file has been changed wrto what was originally installed. The patch changes this behavior so when old and new (in db and in package) is identical -> not changed, the function returns FA_SKIP -> it won't clobber anything, it simply skips installation of the file from the package. This patch handles also the opposite case when old and new packages contain %config symlink and we have regular file on disk. Patch from Tomas Mraz.
