[Rpm-metadata] [PATCH] switch --update to use the sqlite dbs instead of the xml files. Should massively impact memory footprint and hopefully only marginally impact performance.

Tested locally on repodata of 9000 pkgs.

Goes from 1.8-> 2GB of  memory in use with the old createrepo code to
325MB of memory in use - same operation - performance-wise it is not
considerably different. More testing will bear that out, though.

I think I'll push this
