I may be interested in some cross-project test in the future but unlikely to want to test lldb. Yet lldb is in `/usr/bin/` on my Mac and this isn't a good "default" to use this for running the tests here IMO, especially when I don't intend this (and I obviously can't remove `/usr/bin/` from my path without unintended consequences)

Perhaps Apple folks who implemented the original (@aprantl and @JDevlieghere I believe) can weigh in on their intended (& realized/actual) use cases for this functionality - though I agree that probably an explicit opt in to "I want to test with whatever binaries are in my PATH rather than just-built tools in this checkout" would be desirable here.
