code_transformers dartSdkDirectory not working properly when SDK installed as Debian package

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install Dart SDK with Debian (deb) package
2. call dartSdkDirectory method and it returns null

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to see /usr/lib/dart as result, but receives null

What version of the product are you using?
Dart VM version: 1.6.0 (Tue Aug 26 13:49:30 2014) on "linux_x64"

On what operating system?
Debian linux (Jessie)

Please provide any additional information below.
The issue is that debian package is installed into the path /usr/lib/dart, but code in dartSdkDirectory detects the dart SDK by dart-sdk subdir. So I see two possible solutions, modify dartSdkDirectory function to detect sdk dir with some more advanced algorithm, or deply dart sdk in Debian package to the /usr/lib/dart-sdk folder.

This also seems to affect Dart SDK installs via homebrew on Macs.

http://dartbug.com/20376 looks like a dup

[sigmundch]
