[OE-core] [PATCH] lib/oe/package_manager: Performance tweak in regex usage

Profiling a core-image-sato-sdk rootfs, we're spending over 40s
compiling the same regex over and over again, roughly around 5 million
times.

This is suboptimal, fix for a 40s improvement on a 18.5minute task execution
time.
