What does this PR do?

This is a second attempt to ensure that Npcap is correctly installed; running
packetbeat managed by elastic-agent appears to have a different code path to
that when running vanilla packetbeat and does not execute Create in time (at
all?) to have the installer run. So move the installNpcap call to the earliest
time we have all the needed information to ensure that the library is installed
by the time that it is needed.

Why is it important?

This fixes a required feature.
