indexer: Fix link resolution and hardlink handling for rpm

Browse source 
Unlike tar, cpio does not have a separate entry for each directory, so
the link resolution can't assume that directory entries exist for each
path component.

I also mistakenly assumed that cpio handled hardlinks similarly to tar,
but that's clearly not the case. libarchive does help a bit, but these
differences still suck.
