The server doesn't start if flutter (maybe dart too?) root is an invalid path #5909

Description

@FMorschel

Describe the bug
Once a project has run pub get on a different operating system, for example (shared partition), the server never starts.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Mostly a guess, but I think if you have WSL (so no dualboot needed) and Dart installed there. If you run pub get on a project from there and then try opening that workspace folder from Windows, you'll see this behaviour.

Expected behavior
For the Run pub get toast to show up.
