a97a08411c More support for std::filepath in libnixutil
We're not replacing `Path` in exposed definitions in many cases, but
just adding alternatives. This will allow us to "top down" change `Path`
to `std::fileysystem::path`, and then we can remove the `Path`-using
utilities which will become unused.

Also add some test files which we forgot to include in the libutil unit
tests `meson.build`.

58b03ef1cd Move NIX_BIN_DIR and all logic using it to the Nix executable itself
This is because with the split packages of the Meson build, we simply
have no idea what directory the binaries will be installed in when we
build the library.

In the process of doing so, consolidate and make more sophisticated the
logic to cope with a few corner cases (e.g. `NIX_BIN_DIR` exists, but no
binaries are inside it).

6c861b9c51 Factor out lookupExecutable and other PATH improvments
This ended up motivating a good deal of other infra improvements in
order to get Windows right:

- `OsString` to complement `std::filesystem::path`

- env var code for working with the underlying `OsString`s

- Rename `PATHNG_LITERAL` to `OS_STR`

- `NativePathTrait` renamed to `OsPathTrait`, given a character template
  parameter until #9205 is complete.

Split `tests.cc` matching split of `util.{cc,hh}` last year.
