Description
### What happened?
Gemini CLI fails to execute grep_search on Termux (Android) with 'spawn .../rg ENOENT'. This happens because the managed ripgrep binary is compiled for standard GNU/Linux and expects a dynamic linker at /lib/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1, which does not exist in Termux's non-FHS environment.
### What did you expect to happen?
The CLI should detect the environment and either use a compatible ripgrep binary or fallback to the system-installed 'rg' if available.
### Client information
Termux on Android (aarch64).
### Anything else we need to know?
A temporary workaround is to install ripgrep via 'pkg install ripgrep' and symlink it to the expected path in .gemini/tmp/bin/rg.
