/**
* Ensures a ripgrep binary is available.
*
* NOTE:
* - The Gemini CLI currently prefers a managed ripgrep binary downloaded
* into its global bin directory.
* - Even if ripgrep is available on the system PATH, it is intentionally
* not used at this time.
*
* Preference for system-installed ripgrep is blocked on:
* - checksum verification of external binaries
* - internalization of the get-ripgrep dependency
*
* See:
* - feat(core): Prefer rg in system path (#11847)
* - Move get-ripgrep to third_party (#12099)
