Add /opt/homebrew/bin as an additional macOS fallback location (alongside /usr/local/bin) when starting external processes. The previous fallback assumed /usr/local/bin only, which can fail on Apple Silicon Homebrew setups in restricted PATH environments (for example IDE or GUI-launched processes). Apply the same fallback behavior to: - docker compose process runner - DisabledIfProcessUnavailable condition - docker credential helper startup Also update CredentialHelperTests to verify both macOS fallback paths are attempted.

This is unrelated to falling back to an additional path. It's also unnecessary as @DisabledIfProcessUnavailable is never used with slashes in the command names as that would likely hurt their portability. Please revert.

Agreed. I reverted the command-name extraction and kept the change focused on adding the additional macOS fallback path only.

Summary
Improve macOS process startup fallback by supporting both Homebrew bin locations:
/opt/homebrew/bin(default on Apple Silicon)/usr/local/bin(default on Intel macOS; also common in older or Rosetta-based setups)Problem
Some macOS code paths retried process startup using only
/usr/local/bin.On Apple Silicon systems, executables installed via Homebrew are typically located under
/opt/homebrew/bin, so process startup could fail whenPATHis restricted or does notinclude that location.
