split Lmod rpm in Lmod-core and Lmod #49

lgtm

We should also upgrade to Lmod 8.6 soon-ish, since it includes a couple of nice changes. But that should probably be a separate PR, since we want to ensure no breaking changes that affect typical usage on our systems has crept in (shouldn't be, but it wouldn't be the first time)...

Why the split?

The nice thing about Lmod 8.6 is that it finally has a proper config file so you could stop building your own and just use the epel one (with a config file).

i need it installed on a system that uses SCl which requires properly working moduelcmd

@stdweird Do you have more info on what type of problems you're running into with the modulecmd wrapper that we put in place?

If we indeed need modulecmd available too, then using the Lmod from EPEL is going to remain to be a problem, unless we make an Lmod-modulecmd that depends on Lmod from EPEL...
