feat(core): nx-plugin-checks accounts for outDir and rootDir of projects when checking file existence (#29391)

For Nx plugins that use the the new TS solution setup, we need to
account for `generators.json`, `executors.json`, and `migrations.json`
pointing to `dist` rather than source.

This PR adds two options, `rootDir` and `outDir`, that allows the lint
rule to check the source files rather than depend on build artifacts.
The defaults are what we generate our plugins with.

<!-- If this is a particularly complex change or feature addition, you
can request a dedicated Nx release for this pull request branch. Mention
someone from the Nx team or the `@nrwl/nx-pipelines-reviewers` and they
will confirm if the PR warrants its own release for testing purposes,
and generate it for you if appropriate. -->
