Faulty historical binstubs can name an inactive package, such as
pub, as their owner. A laterdart pub global activatethen treats that stale metadata as a command collision and requires--overwrite.This treats binstubs attributed to packages without an active global package lockfile as orphaned and recreates them. Binstubs owned by active packages keep the existing collision protection.
Fixes #4235.
