devtool: Don't recursively look for .devtoolbase in --basepath

If the user specifies --basepath on the commandline, only the directory
specified should be searched for .devtoolbase. Otherwise when --basepath
is a child of the sdk directory, .devtoolbase will always be found and
devtool will only show options meant to be used within an sdk.
