I added "go" to a sysext and mounted it

I expected the "go" binary to be available after refreshing, but it wasn't because go is installed in /usr/share/go/bin and I don't think bext knows what to do about that

digging deeper, this is because the go binary is actually a symlink to ../share/go/bin/go so the logic that adds these to /tmp/extensions.d/bin probably needs to follow the symlinks

Thats honestly quite weird, there are indeed some quirks with the way the nix packages are packaged, but that shooould work? even with the multiple symlinks (/tmp/extensions.d/bin/go -> ../bin/go -> ../share/go/bin/go)
