Nethereum.Autogen.ContractApi breaks when using NUGET_PACKAGES #1026

@Vhab

Description

@Vhab

We are using the NUGET_PACKAGES environment variable during CI to move nuget packages to a specific location for caching and restoring cache.
Please see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/reference/cli-reference/cli-ref-environment-variables for more information about NUGET_PACKAGES

However, the nethereum targets have hardcoded the nuget package path in: https://github.com/Nethereum/Nethereum/blob/master/generators/Nethereum.Autogen.ContractApi/nuget/Nethereum.Autogen.ContractApi.targets

Thus this breaks our build.

Expected Behavior

Expected Nethereum.Autogen.ContractApi to work when combined with NUGET_PACKAGES

Current Behavior

  Nethereum: Code generating dotnet files based on abi files in project and/or Nethereum.Generator.json
...
  Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
  Possible reasons for this include:
    * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
    * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet-/home/AzDevOps/.nuget/packages/nethereum.autogen.contractapi/4.11.0/tools/Nethereum.Generator.Console.dll does not exist.
    * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

Possible Solution

Maybe it possible to programmatically get this path instead, something like dotnet nuget locals -l global-packages ?
