Currently, ESMTK works great as a local dependency but when called remotely it attempts to load the binaries from the wrong location.

Instead, it should fallback to loading the globals if they exist and bail out with a sensible error if they don't.

Requirements:

util to locate the global bin director
util to determine if the bin file exists
modifications to all existing commands

Notes:

should work with npm_config_prefix
should work with Windows
should work with Homebrew
should work with nvm/fnm
