Use createrepo_c instead of createrepo

[cyrinux]

Qubes OS version (e.g., R3.2):

I suggest use createrepo_c instead of createrepo, createrepo_c is faster.

Affected TemplateVMs (e.g., fedora-23, if applicable):

dom0

Expected behavior:

createrepo_cmd = ["/usr/bin/createrepo_c"]

Actual behavior:

createrepo_cmd = ["/usr/bin/createrepo"]

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

createrepo_cmd = ["/usr/bin/createrepo_c"] in /usr/libexec/qubes/qubes-receive-update

To check: Are the incoming packages already verified by this point? (Is this untrusted data? Untrusted package file names or such perhaps?)

If not: IMO we should prefer the normal createrepo (which is in written in python).

@jpouellet I'm not sure to correctly understand what you mean. But createrepo_c package is installed by default and come from default fedora repo.
