fix: make prepare have feature parity with legacy read-package-json

Full list of changes are as follows:
- ignore `directories.bin` if `bin` is present
- walk up filesystem to look for git directory
- log a warning for inaccessible bin entries but dont delete

These changes will be tracked in npm/statusboard#487 to see if they
should be made as breaking changes with npm 10.

These changes are tested by including `read-package-json` as a dev
dependency and running the `test/prepare.js` test suite against both
packages. This test can be removed once we have decided to make these
breaking changes.

Ref: npm/cli#6470
Fixes: #35
