rootfs: do not let ldconfig to create symlinks

Adds -X option to ldconfig to not create symlinks
as part of the ldconfig cache creation process.

It is much better to keep all needed symlinks as part of
of the package then let ldconfig do the job.

In the case symlink was created by ldconfig and later on the
package got removed the dangling link will remain on the
filesystem. Not to mention that such a symlink is orphaned
(e.g. rpm -qf <file-path> will not show the package the symlink
is part of).

It also align the behaviour with libc-musl where the ldconfig
is not invoked by default.
