Description

if I keep my cake scripts in a folder called `scripts` and open vscode with bakery globally installed and the workspace root one level up, it will restore packages to the workspace root.

I tried adding a `cake.config` to the workspace root, but that doesn't seem to be respected.

**What happens**

```
- scripts
- build.cake
- tools
- foo.txt
```

**What is expected**

```
- scripts
- tools
- build.cake
- foo.txt
```

Research direction

Start by tracing how Bakery discovers the workspace root, reads cake.config, and chooses the package-restoration location for scripts/build.cake. Reproduce the nested scripts layout described in the issue and verify that the tools directory is created under scripts rather than the workspace root.
