kpackage: Split kpackagetool5 into a separate package

Kai Uwe Broulik requested to merge work/kbrouli/kpackage-split-tool into master

It is under GPL license as opposed to the rest of the framework, which is LGPL.

Furthermore, it is typically a runtime dependency of applications, not frameworks, which allow user-installation of packages.

Splitting it out into a separate package enables embedded platforms to not ship this tool.


This causes the kpackage RPM to become libkf5package5 and adds another libkf5package-tools package.
