dpkg-shlibdeps: Preserve the order when scanning symbols/shlibs files
The code was getting all the possible shared library pathnames for the
wanted SONAME, but was not preserving the order carefully constructed
in find_library(), so we were overwriting symbols/shlibs information
when parsing multiple entries, and selecting the symbols/shlibs files
randomly based on the perl hash order.
This causes regressions when multiple packages provide the same
SONAME on different directories. An example would be libc6:amd64
and libc6-amd64:i386.

Closes: #860979

[ Guillem Jover ]
* Add missing symbols to the libdpkg map file.
+ * Fix dpkg-shlibdeps to preserve the Dpkg::Shlibs::find_library() order
+ when scanning symbols/shlibs files. This was causing generation of bogus
+ dependencies when multiple packages provide the same SONAME on different
+ directories. Regression introduced in dpkg 1.18.17. Closes: #860979
* Architecture support:
- Add support for ARM64 ILP32. Closes: #824742
