🛠 Tooling: Figure out strategy with `resolveBin`

[JoshuaKGoldberg]

Tooling Report Checklist

• I have tried restarting my IDE and the issue persists.
• I have pulled the latest main branch of the repository.
• I have searched for related issues and found none that matched my issue.

Overview

Right now in CTA, this resolveBin function is used to get the paths to binaries to execute:

create-typescript-app/src/utils/resolveBin.ts

Lines 1 to 7 in 666e3fa

	// TODO: try to see if we can avoid this altogether...
	// ...or failing that, create a package
	export function resolveBin(bin: string) {
	// This can't be tested yet in Vitest :(
	// https://github.com/vitest-dev/vitest/issues/6953
	return import.meta.resolve(bin).replace(/^file:\/\//gu, "");
	}

create-typescript-app/src/blocks/blockCSpell.ts

Lines 81 to 88 in 666e3fa

	scripts: [
	{
	commands: [
	`node ${resolveBin("cspell-populate-words/bin/index.mjs")} ${wordArgs}`,
	],
	phase: CommandPhase.Process,
	},
	],

I don't love having a weird, rather-untestable function sitting around in the commands. It would be nice to figure out a cleaner approach than this... but I don't know what that would look like. 🤔

Additional Info

IIRC I'd added the resolveBin in there to work even if the project wasn't able to install its own dependencies. As in, it should use create-typescript-app/node_modules/ as the resolution root, not the generated package's.

Whatever solution is resolved here will likely need to be pushed up to Bingo. Other templates will have this issue as well.
