[PATCH v2 1/4] run-command: make `exists_in_PATH()` non-static

From: Miriam Rubio <hidden>
Date: 2021-04-07 17:34:33
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Pranit Bauva <redacted>

Removes the `static` keyword from `exists_in_PATH()` function
and declares the function in `run-command.h` file.
The function will be used in bisect_visualize() in a later
commit.

`exists_in_PATH()` and `locate_in_PATH()` functions don't
depend on file-local variables.
