Title: Add a checker for RPM Spec files

Hi,

This adds a checker for RPM Spec [1] files using `rpmlint` [2]. These files are used to build packages for a number of Linux distributions, including Fedora, RHEL, OpenSuSE, Mandriva and others.

There's one thing I don't have a nice fix for: unit tests. I added a unit test that works locally here, using Fedora, but the checker package it relies on, `rpmlint` is not avaiable on a currently supported release of Ubuntu [3]. Any suggestion on what to do about that?
