Patch to convert dirs to symlinks during upgrade

Unfortunately, I've found a major problem when trying to upgrade to this
package.  If you attempt to run yum --enablerepo=rpmfusion*updates-testing
update xbmc, you'll get a couple of file conflicts.  This is because
/usr/share/xbmc and /usr/lib64/xbmc are directories in the xbmc package, but
symlinks in the kodi package.

Rpm doesn't handle directories turning into symlinks properly, so we have add
some scriptlets to make an update work.  See
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Replacing_a_symlink_to_a_directory_or_a_directory_to_any_type_file
and
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Directory_Replacement#Scriptlet_to_replace_a_directory.

The attached patch applies against the 14.0-1.3 spec and adds the necessary
scriplets.

Apologies for not catching this during the review.
