bhyve: capabilities: use full path for emulator

Currently, when the bhyve driver builds capabilities, it uses
just "bhyve" as emulator path. That leads to issues, e.g.
virt-manager uses this value to fill domain's emulator field,
which has to be an absolute path. So that results in a domain
XML that fails validation.

Fix by trying to find "bhyve" in PATH and falling back to
"/usr/sbin/bhyve".
