Pass a path with resolved symlinks to `dpkg -S` command. If it fails, try the original path if they differ.

Testing on Ubuntu 24.04 passed. Successfully created a .deb package from SwingSet2.jar with the not-empty list of dependencies. Before the fix the list of required packages was empty. In jpackage log:


[19:30:48.784] Running dpkg
[19:30:49.118] Command [PID: 244104]:
    dpkg -S /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6
[19:30:49.118] Output:
    libc6:amd64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6
[19:30:49.118] Returned: 0

[19:30:49.118] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 is provided by [libc6]


It was looking for a package providing "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6" library, but the actual argument to "dpgk -S" command was "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6".
