[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] package.bbclass: needs_ldconfig from linux_so is needed in global namespace

[Andrei Gherzan]

"The suite of statements in a function definition executes with a local namespace
that is different from the global namespace. This means that all variables created
within a function are local to that function. When the suite finishes, these
working variables are discarded."

In this way the needs_ldconfig variable in linux_so never gets True in the statements
below this function. As global statement is generally discouraged, a return value
would be a clean and fast way to solve this issue.
