Description:
In native packages, test clients are not installed to the system path, but placed in /usr/lib/mysql-test/bin. Automated tests for these packages then run the mtr testsuite from the installed testsuitepackage using --client-bindir=/usr/lib/mysql-test/bin

For the new test main.mtr_unit_tests, this doesn't work as mtr still looks for mysqltest_safe_process on the system path while it is located in usr/lib/mysql-test/bin

How to repeat:
- Run mtr test without test clients being on system path, but specifying their location with --client-bindir

Suggested fix:
