someone from the Nx team or the `@nrwl/nx-pipelines-reviewers` and they

## Current Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we have today -->
- Packages such as `minimatch` which block access to their
`package.json` AND have multi module format outputs are missed by the
target project locator
- There is no fall back matching of external nodes from the graph by
name
## Expected Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we should expect with the changes in this PR
-->
- The target project locator appropriately finds modules such as
`minimatch`
- There is fall back matching of external nodes from the graph by name

## Current Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we have today -->
We only ever discover one version of an external dependency for the
file-map.json. This means the `@nx/dependency-checks` lint rule can
produce incorrect failures when multiple copies of a dependency exist
within a workspace.
## Expected Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we should expect with the changes in this PR
-->
In the file-map.json the project specific version of a package (if
multiple exist) is preferred and therefore the lint rule produces
accurate results.

For example, in a repo where the root package.json has lodash@4.0.0
(which becomes `npm:lodash` on graph) and the foo project has
lodash@3.0.0:
