whereis: fix fetching of user.cs_path sysctl variable
The current implementation of sysctlbyname() does not support the user
sub-tree. This function exits with a return value of 0, but sets the
passed string buffer to an empty string.
As a result, the whereis program did not use the value of the sysctl
variable "user.cs_path", but only the value of the environment
variable "PATH".
This update makes whereis use the sysctl function with a fixed OID,
which already supports the user sub-tree.
(cherry picked from commit c454c57163574ace86b49626b06637e93e05d5e6)
