python3-scikit-build-core: Use cmake from PATH

Added a patch to remove using CMAKE_BIN_DIR. Instead, use
the fallback to find cmake from PATH.

It's a pre-requisite for building python3-nanobind correctly.

+Subject: [PATCH] Find cmake from PATH instead of CMAKE_BIN_DIR
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+python3-cmake is patched to run cmake from PATH.
+
+Another detail called CMAKE_BIN_DIR is not patched out, but
+scikit-build-core prefers using it in its program_search.py.
+It also has a fallback to find cmake from PATH.
+
+Remove using CMAKE_BIN_DIR and keep the fallback.
