To make unified relocatable package easily, we may want to merge tarballs to single tarball like this:
zcat *.tar.gz | gzip -c > scylla-unified.tar.xz
But it's not possible with current relocatable package format, since there are multiple files conflicts, install.sh, SCYLLA-*-FILE, dist/, README.md, etc..
To support this, we need to archive everything in the directory when building relocatable package.
This is modifying relocatable package format, we need to provide a way to
detect the format version.
To do this, we added a new file ".relocatable_package_version" on the top of the
archive, and set version number "2" to the file.

Unlike CentOS, Debian variants has python3 package on official repository,
so we don't have to use relocatable python3 on these distributions.
However, official python3 version is different on each distribution, we may
have issue because of that.
Also, our scripts and packaging implementation are becoming presuppose
existence of relocatable python3, it is causing issue on Debian
variants.
Switching to relocatable python3 on Debian variants avoid these issues,
it will easier to manage Scylla python3 environments accross multiple
distributions.
