zfs/control: add spl as transitional dummy package

Browse Source 
since splat has been removed from zfs (during the repository merge of zfs and
spl, the userspace spl package does not contain any files (apart from metafiles)

keep the package as metapackage, s.t. the old splat manpage and binary gets
removed upon upgrade.

Description: Solaris Porting Layer user-space utilities for Linux (dummy)
The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides
many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to
run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal
modification. The Solaris Porting LAyer Tests (SPLAT) is a Linux kernel
module which provides a testing harness for the SPL module.
.
SPL can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Illumos
(or any other OpenSolaris fork) development closely and don't want the
overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives
to Linux primitives.
.
This is a transitional dummy package. It can safely be removed.
