[linux-security] check-rpms update



A few bugs were found after the 2.1.0 version of check-rpms was released.
Most notably:

* if neither --recheck nor --list-questionable (-r or -lq) were specified
  a questionable package was not listed although it the standard algorithm
  found an update for the package

* if --recheck (-r) and --download (-dl) were specified with a ftp server
  that serves several versions of the same package with at least one of
  those packages having letters in the version-release string, both
  packages must be downloaded. The new version now deletes after the recheck
  the package that is not needed.
