Update the linker library cache before query

Robert Marshall requested to merge 6513-run-ldconfig-before-library-search into master

What does this MR do?

LinkerHelper sometimes uses outdated cache.

For example, in CentOS:

[root@22114a6eeb4c /]# ldconfig -p|grep ssl
        libssl3.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libssl3.so
        libssl.so.10 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libssl.so.10
[root@22114a6eeb4c /]# ldconfig
[root@22114a6eeb4c /]# ldconfig -p|grep ssl
        libssl3.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libssl3.so
        libssl.so.10 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libssl.so.10
        libssl.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libssl.so

Updating the cache before reading resolves the issue.
