"local code" strips the entry point path

[litaws]

Describe the bug I cannot seem to run sagemaker in "local code" mode with an entry point that is not in the root of the source path. I think this is the reason (or one of them)

To reproduce place the entry point file in one (or more) folders under source_dir (i.e. not in the root folder itself, but a child thereof), and use LocalcSession() with "local code"

by "local code" I mean setting estimator.sagemaker_session.config = dict(local=dict(local_code=True))
before calling estimator.fit(...)

again, see here

I am having this issue as well. I found a workaround for it, but it is not pretty.
