Incorrect installation of cli commands into /usr/local/bin #28375

Describe the bug
I am on a m2 mac machine. The homebrew installation path is /opt/homebrew. But, the keybase-related cli commands are being installed into /usr/local/bin

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install keybase on a mac using homebrew
  2. Run the keybase client
  3. Open Terminal and type in which keybase and see that its pointing to /opt/homebrew/bin/keybase
  4. In the same Terminal session, list the files in the /usr/local/bin folder - and see that there's a different copy of the command (which is in effect a symbolic link to the same real execuable)

Expected behavior
Since the /opt/homebrew/bin folder is present in the local machine, I would have expected the symlink also to be created in that folder.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
