mdadm: Set allowedReferences to only include libc.

Browse source 
The updates we had in the past (7719f7f and 1faf610) broke the mdadm
installer test and systems in the wild using mdraid because newer mdadm
versions contained a self-referenc to its own store path.

Instead of putting a big warning about updating in the package
expression, let's just add allowedReferences so the build immediately
fails if there is a self-reference.
