Subject: [PATCH 196/237] blscfg: Add support for sorting the plus ('+') higher
 than base version

Handle plus separator. Concept is the same as tilde, except that if one of
the strings ends (base version), the other is considered as higher version.

A plus character is used for example by the Linux kernel build system to
denote that is the base version plus some changes on top of it.

Currently for example rpmvercmp("5.3.0", "5.3.0+") will return 0 even when
the two versions are not the same.

Resolves: rhbz#1767395
