Description
Related to #1932.
There are [default locations](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/configuring-nuget-behavior) of `NuGet` configuration files. I believe `Cake` should follow them and discover `NuGet.config` automatically. That will make configuration of custom tool and addins much easier.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading related issue #1932 and the linked NuGet documentation on default configuration-file locations. Then locate Cake's custom tool and addin configuration handling. Done means Cake automatically discovers NuGet.config from the documented default locations, with coverage for the relevant discovery behavior.
