Subject: [PATCH] btrbk: Prefix PATH instead of resetting it.
Some distros don't even install use /usr/bin, /sbin, etc. (notably
NixOS). Instead, they use PATH to specify which programs are available
to a given executable.
This patch changes the behavior or `btrbk` so it extends PATH with its
own search paths instead of resetting it. This allows users and distros
to specify their own custom location for `btrfs` via `PATH`.
