Describe the problem

When setting the directories.data option in the arduino-cli.yaml with a relative path, The dependency is downloaded correctly, but an error "no such file or directory" is given upon build.

To reproduce

create a new project with a dependency, and an arduino-cli.yaml in the root with the following contents:

 directories:                                                                                  
   data: ./data                                                                                
   downloads: ./staging 

An example repo is available here: https://github.com/aarobc/arduino-cli-error-example clone down the repo and run:

arduino-cli compile --profile uno

The build fails, and following error will be given:

Error during build: stat data/internal/Encoder_1.4.2_496972fffc26d938/Encoder/data/internal/Encoder_1.4.2_496972fffc26d938/Encoder/Encoder.cpp: no such file or directory

Expected behavior

No error to be given, and build to be successful.

@aarobc We removed the support for arduino-cli.yaml configuration in the current working directory, because of supposed security risks #2085

In any case, why are you writing the arduino-cli.yaml in the sketch? Shouldn't the sketch.yaml be already sufficient? The CLI is able to install the missing pieces automatically (without interfering with the globally installed tools).
