Stefano reports that after commit 62089b8048 ("kbuild: rpm-pkg:
Generate debuginfo package manually"), building with an rpm package
using rpm 4.20.0 fails with:
RPM build errors:
Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': #�) = 0x0d000002
Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': �) = 0x0d000000

This error comes from the automatic requirements feature of rpm. The
-debuginfo subpackage has no dependencies, so disable this feature with
'AutoReq: 0' for this subpackage, avoiding the error. This matches the
official %_debug_template macro that rpm provides. While automatic
provides should be default enabled, be explicit like %_debug_template
does.
Additionally, while in the area, add the manual debug information
package to the Development/Debug group, further aligning with
%_debug_template.
