Hmm. Should we add "/opt/homebrew/bin" to the default
tramp-remote-path? It looks very special, even on macOS.

OTOH, we have directories like "/local/freeware/bin", "/local/gnu/bin",
"/usr/freeware/bin", "/usr/pkg/bin", "/usr/contrib/bin", "/opt/bin",
"/opt/sbin" and "/opt/local/bin" there, which are also special.

Best regards, Michael.
