Create the `/usr/bin/code` symlink during %install so that the package owns and manages it. Also, make it relative (for better relocatability).
- Sort directory creation into same order as copying & %files list - Break up into sections, label with a comment above each
- Once `@@name@@` is replaced into the spec file as the `Name:`, it can be referenced with the RPM macro `%{name}` - The installation directories corresponding to `/usr/bin/` and `/usr/share/` are defined in the RPM macros `%{_bindir}` and `%{_datadir}`

This PR, which builds on #142907 (and stems from the discussion in #142907 (comment)), updates the RPM spec file to use standard RPM macros where appropriate in the package definition.
@@NAME@@is replaced into the specfile definition ofName:, its value can be referenced using the%{name}macro, requiring less substitution on the template specfile.%{_bindir}and%(_datadir}are preferred, when specifying paths for installed files (either in the%{builddir}tree, during%install, or in the%fileslist).Also:
%installsection are now sorted to match the other references to those paths throughout the file%installup into coarse sections, each labeled with a preceding comment
