feat: Support a Bazel Path (#29)

- Allow users to pass in a path to the Bazel path executable. Useful for
custom installations of Bazel.
- Only install Bazel to the PATH if the expected bazel-path is `bazel`,
but no bazel exists. If a user provides a custom bazel-path, we assume
the executable exists. Similarly, if bazel already exists, no need to
install.
