core: resolve ld link first.
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged PR #1189 as commit 78d1883ca, resolving ld symlinks before existence checks in classic-confinement builds and fixing LP #1672495.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: PR #1189 was merged as commit 78d1883ca. It changed classic-confinement handling to resolve the dynamic linker path first, allowing symlinked ld binaries to be recognized.

Issue body
When building with classic confinement the logic was to check
if what was defined as ld existed, but it wouldn't if it was
a symbolic link so check for that in the first check as well.
