Joachim Wiberg 2b812101be test: run keventd from the configured libexec path
make distcheck fails in dbus-device:

    sh: /libexec/finit/keventd: not found

distcheck configures with --prefix=$(distdir)/_inst, so the bundled
helpers install below that prefix, not in /libexec/finit, which the test
had hard coded.

Export the configured pkglibexecdir as FINIT_EXECPATH in test.env and
run keventd from there, the same path finit itself is built with.

Note

Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.

For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
