Daniel Hilst da282043be fix(build): run buildrpms.pl in a sandbox and install its fork manager in CI ...

buildrpms_source_only.t's CLI half failed in CI: the runner has no
Parallel::ForkManager, so buildrpms.pl aborted at compile time and never
reached the option check the test is about. The module is needed only by
the test suite -- buildrpms.pl is not a runtime dependency of any package
-- so it goes in the workflow apt list.

The same half also escaped its scratch tree. Before buildrpms.pl looks at
@ARGV it rewrites the tracked Gitinfo in its working directory and creates
$HOME/rpmbuild, so running it from the checkout left the tree dirty and
reached into the developer's home to exercise argument parsing. It now
runs from a staged copy with HOME pointed at the sandbox.

Exit 2 is pinned rather than "non-zero", though perl also exits 2 on a
compile abort -- which is exactly how this assertion stayed green in CI
while the program could not load. The message assertion is what separates
the two, and the comment now says so.
