Originally created by @krayon on GitHub (Mar 16, 2020).

check_dependencies uses command -v to determine the path (and presence) of
various binaries, it does not however check their execution status.

In the event PATH contains a matching name, but it is NOT executable,
command -v will still return it, so we must check for it's ability to be
executed.

Also, awk and sed aren't checked for which are used a fair bit.
