warn when pager is missing instead of silently falling back

Browse Source 
when a configured pager (via BAT_PAGER, PAGER, or --pager) is not found,
bat now shows a warning message before falling back to stdout. this helps
users understand why their pager isn't running and makes it obvious when
there's a typo or PATH issue.

fixes issue #2904
