Moved CUPS filters gstoraster and gstopxl to cups-filters

As Ghostscript's CUPS filters gstoraster and gstopxl need changes to
allow PPD-less printing on IPP printers and these changes introduce
a new dependency on the libcupsfilters library of the cups-filters
project, we have moved these filters to cups-filters now.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since Ghostscript 9.09 it may require (to some extent) cups-filters
but no hard RPM "Requires" but perhaps a RPM "Recommends", compare
