Issue body

Refresh the apt package list before marking packages for installation when installation is required. Previously, marking could fail with BuildPackageNotFound if the apt cache was stale, because apt-get update was triggered too late. Adds unit tests to verify refresh ordering and the refresh_package_cache flag. Related: canonical/craft-parts#292, canonical/rockcraft#1005.
