Drop the hardcoded binary path from the programs.
Instead use a very basic heuristic to find them and inject
the full path when needed.
This allows those programs which have been converted to polkit
(and thus have binary path in /usr/bin) to happily coexist with
ones which have not (and thus have path in /usr/sbin).
Long term goal is to put all binaries in /usr/bin and ditch any
kind of reliance on PATH as a fundamental separator. The tools
which need root privs should either be wrapped in polkit policy
or simply refuse to run.
