Ubuntu support: Enable creation of gppkg on Ubuntu
This commit makes necessary changes to create a gppkg on Ubuntu. The
default behavior when MADlib is built on Ubuntu is to create a .deb
installer. If we want to create a gppkg, then we need an RPM due to
limitations in gppkg. We now create an RPM on Ubuntu (assuming package
alien is installed on Ubuntu) if the right cmake flag is specified. Once
an RPM is created on `make package`, we can now go ahead and create the
gppkg using `make gppkg`.
The cmake flag to use if we want to create an .rpm instead of .deb on
Ubuntu when we run `make package` is:
-DCREATE_RPM_FOR_UBUNTU=True
