         * system.
         *
         * This function is supposed to be used when looking for "callout" binaries that are closely related
         * to the main program (i.e. speak a specific protocol between each other). And where it's generally
         * a good idea to use the binary from the build tree (if there is one) instead of the system.
         *
         * Note that this does *not* actually return the rpath/runpath but the instead the directory the main
         * executable was found in. This follows the logic that the result is supposed to be used for
         * executable binaries (i.e. stuff in bindir), not for shared libraries (i.e. stuff in libdir), and
         * hence the literal shared library path would just be wrong.
         *
         * TLDR: if we look for callouts in this dir first, running binaries from the meson build tree
         * automatically uses the right callout.
         *
         * Returns:
         *     -ENOEXEC         → We are not running in an rpath/runpath $ORIGIN environment
         *     -ENOENT          → We don't know our own binary path
