Issue: [BUG] Error: PathNotFoundException during symbolic link resolution on Linux (/proc/self/exe not found)
Labels: waiting for customer response,in triage

### Steps to reproduce

1. Run the Flutter application on a Linux device.
2. Observe the error during startup.

### Expected results

The application should start without errors, and the `path_provider_linux` package should successfully resolve symbolic links for the application support path.

### Actual results

`PathNotFoundException: Cannot resolve symbolic links, path = '/proc/self/exe' (OS Error: No such file or directory, errno = 2)`

  runApp(MyApp());
}

init(){
    final prefsWithCache = await SharedPreferencesWithCache.create(
    cacheOptions: const SharedPreferencesWithCacheOptions(),
  );
  /// Register AppPreferences and its implementation
  di.registerLazySingleton<AppPreferences>(
    () => AppPreferencesImpl(
      prefsWithCache,
    ),
  );
}

class AppPreferencesImpl implements AppPreferences {
  late SharedPreferencesWithCache _sharedPreferences;

  set sharedPreferences(SharedPreferencesWithCache value) {
    _sharedPreferences = value;
  }

  AppPreferencesImpl(SharedPreferencesWithCache sharedPrefs) {
    _sharedPreferences = sharedPrefs;
    initSharedPrefs();
  }

  initSharedPrefs() async {
    _sharedPreferences = await SharedPreferencesWithCache.create(
      cacheOptions: const SharedPreferencesWithCacheOptions(),
    );
  }
}
