In many of languages (rust, python, golang) BuildRequires are normal Requires + 
Test deps. It's always (in many of cases) possible to get names of packages in 
advance, before building.

Since Requires are dynamic, BuildRequires also, but nowadays you still have to 
specify it manually and check those after each update of package. Would be nice 
to implement support for generating BuildRequires.

Usually such generator will require some additional package to be installed 
(cargo, python), so we will need to introduce someting like 
`BuildRequires(pre)` or `BuildRequires(source)` which should be installed for 
building SRPM. Having this is also beneficial for normal process since you 
don't need to modify buildroot all the time in order to have some macro.
