Support builds configured with a separate --bindir

* src/emacs.c (load_pdump): Don't overwrite the leading
directories of the Emacs executable just because the pdumper file
was not found in the expected directory relative to the binary.
This is needed to support builds with a separate --bindir
configure-time option and native-compilation.  (Bug#55741)
