Nice solution. I don't think I would have ever thought to do this. 👍

What does this PR do?
Auditbeat uses librpm to determine
information about installed packages. To do this auditbeat needs to
dlopen the librpm dynamic library. The version number and thus
filename of the library changes over time. Previously we had a list
of acceptable values, but this caused librpm to not be loaded when
there was a new version. This change uses the information in the elf
header of the rpm binary to determine the exact path of librpm (and
thus version) that the rpm binary on the system uses. A fallback of
"librpm.so" is also provided. If systems have the
rpm-develpackageinstalled then this symlink is available.
Why is it important?
Stops us from having to update an accepted list of librpm.so filenames
when new version of rpm based Linux distributions are released.
