I'd like to remove the sources in the first thought, but that would
cause a problem: if we only re-run the do_package_write_rpm, for example,
when the FILES is changed, then the sources are gone, and we would get
nothing in the .src.rpm. I thing that keep both the .src.rpm and.tar.gz
is not a big problem, so I changed the usage to:

We will always get .tar.gz and other sources, and the .src.rpm is optional:

ARCHIVER_MODE[srpm] ?= "1"


I think that we can move the rpmbuild related code to archiver.*bbclass to
fix  the problem, but that would change a lot of the code, I'd like to fix
it in  the next release:-)
