pactest: check for pacman binary before running
Using fakeroot or fakechroot as the command with subprocess.call prevents the detection and reporting of a missing pacman binary. Some tests even pass when run with a non-existent binary. Checking manually allows us to provide a meaningful error message and prevent the false positives. Signed-off-by: Andrew Gregory <andrew.gregory.8@gmail.com>
