Make redhat exhaustive test install command more robust (#17592)

We are seeing a frequent issue in CI where tests are failing to install via
package manager on rhel8. It looks like the issue may be due to processes that
are being terminated and leaving behind lock files on the rpm database. This
commit udpates the install method to try to do a database rebuild routine which
will force lock files to be removed. This fix assumes that at the time of
testing, our tests should take priority over any package manager operation and
we can prioritize our command over anything else that may be interacting with
the package manager.
