Support determining the binaries' installation path at runtime even if
called without any path components (i.e. via search path).
The default for any change is not to include it.  Is there any
reason why we want this change?
It makes a binary git installation fully relocatable. Seeing how git
already has basic support for it I thought other people might be
interested in this.
I am still interested in getting this accepted into git. Where do I push
to get it committed?
I do not have a strong objection to what it tries to achieve, but
I'd prefer to see no "#ifdef platform" code in a very generic part
of the system like exec_cmd.
