Rebulid OBS packages only if sources are changed

[xmudrii]

I noticed that all packages in all OBS build projects suddenly got rebuilt today. Turns out that this is expected because OBS automatically triggers package rebuilds if any (direct or transitive) dependency is upgraded in the operating system that's used for building packages. For example, we had this situation today:

osc triggerreason isv:kubernetes:core:shared:build/kubernetes-cni rpm ppc64le                                                                 
https://api.opensuse.org/ isv:kubernetes:core:shared:build kubernetes-cni rpm ppc64le
meta change (at 2023-08-23 14:01:57)
changed keys:
   md5sum binutils
   md5sum libctf-nobfd0
   md5sum libctf0

This is actually not much useful to us because we use prebuilt binaries in packages instead of building binaries inside OBS. Moreover, this can interfere with our release process and tooling. I think that we should disable this behavior and only rebuild packages if sources are updated.

Is changing the trigger to local the way to go?
