    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.
