407 implemented having Linux tools (for WSL) on Windows. Currently, they live on the Windows disk; this makes them slower to start up (we assume because of overhead transferring them from the Windows host to the Linux guest every time). We should figure out a way to copy them into the Linux VM somehow.

This has two parts, essentially:

Copy the executables to somewhere shared, like /mnt/wsl/…, so they're accessible to all distros.
Add the new place to PATH. It is unclear at this time how this part can be done.
