RPM installs plugins to separated subdir, and all of them was missed from plist.

Fix it by wrap with sub macro.

Python helpers and scripts used for python packaging was removed
from RPM, comunity-driven files should be used instead.
Release note: https://rpm.org/wiki/Releases/4.17.0
These are fixes Ruby 3.0
Changes were compiled against all dependencies of devel/ruby-gems and
they all built cleanly.
There are five known build failures, all prexisting:
* devel/rubygem-xdg5: requires Ruby 3.0
* devel/rubygem-xdg: requires Ruby 3.1
* graphics/rubygem-objectdetect: port explicitly marked broken
* mail/rubygem-tmail: port explicitly marked broken
* science/cdcl: marked broken, unfetchable
Plus, science/rubygem-ruby-dcl gets skipped because of science/cdcl

Full changelog:
https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/gear/21.12.2/
Update the CONFLICTS definitions of ports in the following categories:
- accessibility
- archivers
- audio
- benchmarks
- biology
- cad
- chinese
- comms
- converters
An attempt has been made to use generic conflicts patterns that do not
have to be updated whenever a new version of a conflicting port is
added to the ports system.
There is a misunderstanding that the port being built/installed has to
be omitted from the conflicts pattern. This is not true - the port
being built is implicitly non-conflicting due to logic in bsd.port.mk.

This includes the following changes:
- Decompression time has been reduced by 5-12% depending on the file.

- Several descriptions have been improved in manual, '--help', and man
page.

to match gzip.
