filesystem: Disallow subdirs in /bin and its friends (PG 0201)
The FHS says that directories /bin, /sbin and their counterparts in
/usr don't contain any subdirectories:
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch03s04.html#requirements2
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch03s16.html#requirements8
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s04.html#requirements9a
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s10.html#requirements10a
Packages that need specific subdirs for binaries should install them
in /usr/lib or /usr/libexec.
