Allow path-bound builtins on restricted shells

If a system administrator prefixes /opt/ast/bin to the path and
then invokes the shell in restricted mode, they clearly intend for
the user to run those AST utilities.

Similarly, if a system administrator sets a PATH for a restricted
shell that includes libraries listed in the .paths file, they must
have intended for the user to use those loadable built-ins, as they
will be associated with the pathnames of their respective
libraries. Since the user cannot change PATH or use the builtin
command, they still cannot load just any built-in they choose.

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/path.c:
- Remove SH_RESTRICTED check when handling path-bound builtins
  or dynamic libaries containining builtins in $PATH.

src/cmd/ksh93/tests/builtins.sh:
- Add test verifying a restricted user can use /opt/ast/bin/cat
  via a PATH search.
