We will be installing python minio package via Jaspy, but for the mc command line exectuable (probably best called minio because mc is also used for MidnightCommander) we should use an RPM.

Created an RPM, and the executable name is minio to avoid confusion with any (possible future) installation of MidnightCommander. Based on this executable name, the software will create its dotfile directory automatically at $HOME/.minio, so if existing users are using an executable called mc then they will have to move/copy any config files at $HOME/.mc

Added to meta RPM and tested deployment via yum. (Now jasmin-sci-1.4-2.el7.noarch.)

Ready to deploy, so now closing.
