Hardwire the fundamental BDB access method configuration inside rpm

- The different access methods have different capabilities and are not
  interchangeable in all situations. Currently we can use either
  hash and btree but this might not be always the case for all indexes.
- We'll eventually want to force-switch the index types to our liking,
  but for now follow these simple rules:
  1) For existing databases, we accept both btree and hash
  2) For newly created databases, the main Packages database remains
     a hash, all indexes are btrees.
- Rip out nearly all the rest of the remaining macro configuration.
