find_program: Revert "Find programs that are executable but not readable"

Brad King requested to merge brad.king/cmake:revert-find_program-exe-no-read into master

The fix in !4571 (merged) can break existing projects that were (likely accidentally) relying on the old behavior to find files that are readable but not executable. Revert the fix for now. We can re-introduce it with a policy later.

Instead of reverting the test case, update it to cover the old behavior. That can serve as a reference for testing the policy when introduced.

Fixes: #20814 (closed)
Issue: #10468 (closed)
Backport: release
