Fix binfmt_misc check

postmarketOS Bot requested to merge fix/1444-binfmt-misc-check into master

Created by: ollieparanoid

We require binfmt_misc to run programs of foreign architectures (e.g. armhf) with QEMU. This is set up by default in most distributions, but in some (e.g. Alpine, Void) it needs to be configured manually (see Troubleshooting).

We have a check in place, which points to that troubleshooting wiki page. However, the check was flawed, because we assumed the binfmt_misc folder would not exist.

Fixes #1444 (closed).
