package.bbclass: add SHLIBSSEARCHDIRS to define where to search for shlib providers

* when package contains some files matching "^.*\.so", but in directory
  not default linker search paths (e.g. /opt/package/bundled-lib/libfoo.so)
  don't register it as libfoo provider, because it's possible that there
  is different package providing libfoo.so in ${libdir} and that would
  be better shlib provider for other packages to depend on
* recipes providing libs intentionally in some other directory can
  define own SHLIBSSEARCHDIRS value
