I've implemented this in #12332.
The solution adds an `executable(name_or_path)` function to Maven 4's
condition-based profile activation DSL (alongside the existing `exists()`,
`missing()`, `inrange()`, etc.).
**How it works:**
- If a plain name is given (e.g. `executable('musl-gcc')`), each directory
in the system `PATH` is searched in order
- On Windows, extensions `.exe`, `.cmd`, `.bat`, `.com` are tried
automatically
when the name has none
- If an absolute/relative path is given (e.g.
`executable('/usr/bin/musl-gcc')`),
it is checked directly without PATH traversal
- The `PATH` is read from `ProfileActivationContext` system properties
(`env.PATH`) — consistent with how Maven exposes all env vars
The use case from the issue now works as:
```xml
<activation>
<condition>executable('x86_64-linux-musl-gcc')</condition>
</activation>
