Jeremy Visser c5bbd80cb9 zfs-dkms rpm: simplify scriptlets, fix uninstall
Two problems led to unexpected behaviour of the scriptlets:

1) Newer DKMS versions change the formatting of "dkms status":

   (old) zfs, 2.1.2, 5.14.10-300.fc35.x86_64, x86_64: installed
   (new) zfs/2.1.2, 5.14.10-300.fc35.x86_64, x86_64: installed

   Which broke a conditional determining whether to uninstall.

2) zfs_config.h not packaged properly, but was attempted to be read
   in the %preun scriptlet:

   CONFIG_H="/var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.1.2/*/*/zfs_config.h"

   Which broke the uninstallation of the module, which left behind a
   dangling symlink, which broke DKMS entirely with this error:

     Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
     File: /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.1.1/source/dkms.conf does not exist.

This change attempts to simplify life by:

*  Avoiding parsing anything (less prone to future breakage)
*  Uses %posttrans instead of %post for module installation, because
   %post happens before %preun, while %posttrans happens afterwards
*  Unconditionally reinstall module on upgrade, which is less
   efficient but the trade-off is that it's more reliable

Alternative approaches could involve fixing the existing parsing bugs
or improving the logic, but this comes at the cost of complexity and
possible future bugs.
