This PR removes installation instructions for Nx < 18 since it has
fallen out of support window. Users can always `npm install <plugin>` as
usual if they are on an unsupported Nx version, but the docs will assume
`nx add` moving forward.
The changes are on the plugin overview page:
https://nx-dev-git-docs-remove-nx-pre-18-install-nrwl.vercel.app/nx-api
- Update artifact generator schemas:
- Clarify `path` is the artifact file path relative to the current
working directory
- Clarify `name` is the artifact symbol name
- Remove prompt for `name` and remove it from the important options
(won't be displayed by default in Nx Console generation UI, it will be
part of the collapsed options) given that most of the time, it's meant
to match the filename (last segment of the `path`)
- Remove some leftover options related to the name and path formats that
were previously missed
- Fix an issue with NestJS generators
- Fix an issue with Next `page` generator

Update the `@nx/js:setup-build` and the generators it depends on to
support the new TS setup with project references.

This PR updates examples in `.md` files (both docs and blog posts) to
use positional args. Nx 20 changes the position arg to be either
`directory` for apps/libs or `path` for artifacts (e.g. components).
So before you'd do this:
```
nx g app myapp --directory=apps/myapp
nx g lib mylib --directory=libs/mylib
nx g lib mylib --directory=libs/nested/mylib
nx g lib @acme/foo --directory=libs/@acme/foo --importPath=@acme/foo
nx g component foo --directory=libs/ui/src/foo --pascalCaseFiles
```
Will now be simplified to
```
nx g app apps/myapp
nx g lib libs/mylib
nx g lib libs/nested/mylib
nx g lib libs/@acme/foo # name and import path are both "@acme/foo"
nx g component libs/ui/src/foo/Foo
```
For cases where `name` and `importPath` need to be changed, you can
always manually specify them.
```
nx g lib libs/nested/foo # name is foo
nx g lib libs/nested/foo --name=nested-foo # specify name with prefix
nx g lib libs/@acme/foo --name # use "foo" as name and don't match importPath
nx g lib libs/@internal/foo --importPath=@acme/foo # different importPath from name

We forgot to rename these in the init generator descriptions. This
affects tutorials since we've been including the terminal output with
the wrong scope.

## Current Behavior
esbuild doesn't support the creation of declaration files (*.d.ts) and
probably never will (see https://github.com/evanw/esbuild/issues/95).
Since declaration files are essential for published libraries,
it would be great if @nx/esbuild:esbuild would provide an option to
output them.
## Expected Behavior
- Introduced a new boolean valued `declaration` option for the `esbuild`
executor
- If `declaration` or the tsconfig option
[declaration](https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#declaration) is
true,
then the TypeScript compiler is used before esbuild to generate the
declarations
- The output directory structure of the declarations can be influenced
by setting the TypeScript rootDir via the `declarationRootDir` option

### Additional Comment
Please note that the generated declaration files directory structure is
affected by the tsconfig `rootDir` property.
For a library that doesn't reference other libraries inside the
monorepo, the `rootDir` property can be changed freely.
If a library inside the monorepo is referenced the `rootDir` property
must be set to the workspace root.
The `tsc` executor has a sophisticated check that automatically sets the
`rootDir` to the workspace root if a library is referenced.
https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/master/packages/js/src/executors/tsc/tsc.impl.ts#L104
This check is quite complex and specific to the `tsc` executor options.
Therefore, it hasn't been included inside the esbuild implementation.
The current implementation leaves it to the user to solve the edge case
by removing the `declarationRootDir` option or by setting the
`declarationRootDir` to `.`.
In the future, it might make sense to generalize and use the `tsc`
executor check.
