Fix pacman: "IndexError: list index out of range" #63077 (#65750) (#67011)

* Fix #63077

If the package is already installed the stdout is not as expected by this function. Either remove `--needed` or just noop if we detect pacman returning. We cannot match the stdout string, as that is most likely localized.

```
[root@archBook user]# /usr/bin/pacman --upgrade --noconfirm --noprogressbar --needed  /srv/aur/src/i3cat-git/i3cat-git-r38.c6d29dd-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
loading packages...
warning: i3cat-git-r38.c6d29dd-1 is up to date -- skipping
 there is nothing to do
```
