Public bug reported:
When the user installs a snap (like slack) but does not have /snap/bin in PATH the message is very confusing:
```
$ sudo snap install slack
...
$ slack
Command 'slack' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install slack
```
The fix is that /snap/bin needs to be considered by c-n-f so that it can say:
```
command 'slack' is available in '/snap/bin/slack'
The command could not be located because '/snap/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
slack: command not found
```
