Kernel installation should look for tool in current assembly directory automatically #56
Description
Currently, if the installed kernel tool cannot be found automatically (e.g., due to dotnet CLI failing to add the global tools folder to the system PATH, as in dotnet/sdk#9353), the user has to manually specify the path using --path-to-tool. For example, see workarounds in microsoft/iqsharp#14 and MicrosoftDocs/quantum-docs-pr#900.
As suggested by @cgranade, to make this a little bit simpler, it would be nice if the kernel installation exposed something like a --find-path option that tries to guess the path from System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location.
