Redesign project file resolver
Metadata
Current evaluation
Redesign project file resolver to search multiple locations and skip non-directory candidates. Current resolver only checks one app-named YAML and errors on a file path; multi-location search remains unimplemented.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: Maintainer-authored design issue with clear goals and an internal Jira ticket (CRAFT-3772). Current `resolve_project_file_path()` still only checks `self._project_dir / self.project_file_name`, so the requested multi-location resolver is not implemented; the file-vs-directory case now raises `ProjectDirectoryTypeError` rather than an internal error.
