//! Direct `/etc/ld.so.cache` reading and writing.
//!
//! `ldconfig` is never invoked. Both the historical `ld.so-1.7.0` layout and the
//! current `glibc-ld.so.cache1.1` layout are understood on the way in, including
//! the common case where a new-format cache is appended after an old-format one.
//!
//! On the way out, [`build`] emits a `glibc-ld.so.cache1.1` image for the
//! bundle. Without one, a packaged application cannot find a library outside
//! the directories the loader searches by default: the rootfs carries no
//! `ldconfig`, and the build host's cache describes the host's filesystem.
