      Build -system-info and -check-locale with relative DT_RPATH · c3a06cce

      This ensures that they can find the non-ubiquitous json-glib library,
      and the steam-runtime-tools library, even if relocated into a
      non-standard prefix like the LD_LIBRARY_PATH Steam Runtime.
      
      We can't just use a relative version of the standard library directory
      as our RPATH, because if we did that, we would load glibc from the
      same place. This causes crashes in pressure-vessel, where ld.so and
      the rest of glibc are often taken from the host system via
      /overrides/lib, and the glibc in /lib and /usr/lib is incompatible
      with ld.so. Instead, use a private library directory and populate it
      with relative symlinks to our non-glibc dependencies; we assume the
      host version of glibc is new enough that this is OK.
      
      Using DT_RPATH in preference to DT_RUNPATH means we take all our direct
      and indirect dependencies from the same place. This is important when
      libjson-glib (which won't ordinarily have a RUNPATH or RPATH) pulls in
      GIO as an indirect dependency of check-locale, which doesn't directly
      depend on GIO. The GIO library we get must match the versions of GLib
      and GObject we're using.
      
      This also bypasses LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
