Yocto has their own way to set the platform names via BSPs (Board Support Packages). These names are more specific than basic CPU architectures, and such a platform name ends up in /etc/rpm/platform but the corresponding subdirectory under /usr/lib/rpm/platform does not exist.
Allow creating such custom platform subdirectory with feeding the necessary data using external variables: RPM_CUSTOM_ARCH, RPM_CUSTOM_ISANAME, RPM_CUSTOM_ISABITS, RPM_CUSTOM_CANONARCH and RPM_CUSTOM_CANONCOLOR
Fixes #2578
