A library shouldn't require changes to the caller's argument handling, especially if it doesn't have to, and indeed we don't have to. This changes the lookup order to prioritize the hardcoded path to nix if it exists. The static executable still finds itself through /proc and the like.

Motivation
A library shouldn't require changes to the caller's argument handling, especially if it doesn't have to, and indeed we don't have to.
This changes the lookup order to prioritize the hardcoded path to nix if it exists. The static executable still finds itself through /proc and the like.
Context
Encountered in hercules-ci-agent when run on a single user installation.
A solution is also required for #7735. It currently contains a workaround, whereas this is a general solution.
nixos-optionprobably also suffers from this problem.May be obsoleted by #1221, but a simple bugfix should take priority I think.
