Using the first element in PATH is really awkward and prone to
errors. As we have already located the scripts directory by
using shutil.which('devtool'), we could well make use of it to
locate oe-core directory.

Note that the scripts could be a symbolic link to the real location
under oe-core. So we need to use os.path.realpath() to get its
real location.
