Appearance data not always available on 1st search in AH

Some items when first loaded into the new Auction House do not load with their appearance data available.

This means that Ctrl+Clicking to preview them will not work - the Dressing Room window will not appear at all.

The appearanceLink information in their rowData is empty.

Example item: GitLab - toreltwiddler/CanIMogIt/issues/220

If the Auction House search is repeated, the data will be populated.
