As these symlinks have been generated by an earlier install of the same
package, an upgrade should be able to replace them I think.
So this seems an rpm bug to me.
Is there anything I can do as eccodes packager to fix this?

Smelled like the classic case of RPM not replacing directories with
symlinks and vice versa. Confirmed with this brief look, likely the same
for the other conflicting files:
$ rpmls eccodes-data-2.40.0-1.fc43.noarch.rpm |grep 110$
drwxr-xr-x /usr/share/eccodes/definitions/bufr/tables/0/local/8/78/110
$ rpmls eccodes-data-2.42.0-2.fc43.noarch.rpm |grep 110$
lrwxrwxrwx /usr/share/eccodes/definitions/bufr/tables/0/local/8/78/110
