Set explicit remote deploy PATH

Browse Source 
Prompts used since the previous commit:
- useradd staat op /usr/local/bin/useradd. Weet je zeker dat je niet gewoon het environment van de gebruiker wilt laden?

Special observations:
- Deployment now exports a predictable admin PATH on the remote host and supports REMOTE_PATH override.
- It searches /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin before common system sbin locations.
- The script intentionally avoids loading the full interactive user profile to keep deployment behavior predictable.
- verplaats_log.json remains modified from the user's run and was intentionally not staged.

- `deploy_vps.sh` is host-neutral despite its historical filename. It packages the repo excluding `.git`, `config.json`, logs, runtime JSON state/log files, bytecode, and local mailbox data; uploads to the SSH host in `REMOTE_HOST`; installs under `/opt/mailcat` by default; creates/uses a non-root system user named `mailcat` by default; installs a systemd service; enables but does not start the service.
- The deploy script requires `REMOTE_HOST` and `REMOTE_USER`. The old `VPS_HOST` and `VPS_USER` names still work as aliases. Optional overrides: `APP_USER`, `APP_DIR`, `SERVICE_NAME`, and `ACCOUNT`.
- The deploy script uploads a temporary remote shell script and runs it with `ssh -tt`, so remote `sudo` can prompt for a password on NAS systems that require a terminal. The remote script starts with `sudo -v`.
- The deploy script searches both PATH and common sbin locations such as `/usr/sbin/useradd` and `/sbin/useradd`. If `useradd` is genuinely unavailable, it falls back to the existing SSH user and that user's primary group for service ownership.
- The deploy script exports an explicit remote PATH before running install commands: `/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin` by default, overrideable with `REMOTE_PATH`. It searches both PATH and common absolute paths such as `/usr/local/bin/useradd`, `/usr/sbin/useradd`, and `/sbin/useradd`. If `useradd` is genuinely unavailable, it falls back to the existing SSH user and that user's primary group for service ownership.
- `systemd/mailcat-sort.service` is a template consumed by `deploy_vps.sh`; after placeholder replacement it runs `sort_mail_daemon.py --account backup --folder INBOX` and stores state/logs under `/var/lib/mailcat` and `/var/log/mailcat`.
- `config.json` remains ignored and must be created manually on the remote host with mode `600` before starting the service.
