[bug#73495] [PATCH] gnu: dyninst: Remove patch-bad-logic phase.

[guix-patches--- via]

The short circuit logic (return failure to resolve library path
if ldconfig not found) is no longer present on Dyninst 13.

* gnu/packages/instrumentation.scm (dyninst):
  Remove patch-bad-logic phase.

Fixes: 254c8f2c8cbb ("gnu: dyninst: Update to 13.0.0.")
