How fzf-make judges which command runner can be used

make

Whether makefile(file name should be one of GNUmakefile, makefile, Makefile) is in the current directory.

pnpm

Whether package.json and pnpm-lock.yaml are in the current directory.

yarn

Whether package.json and yarn.lock are in the current directory.

just

Whether justfile or .justfile are in the current directory or ancestor directories. If the lower cased file name matches justfile or .justfile, it is treat as a justfile. (e.g. justFile or .JustFile are also valid.)
