feat(core): allow tasks to run with a substring of project name (#29552)
When projects use only `package.json` and not `project.json`, we need to
set the simple name in the `nx` property of `package.json`. This isn't
ideal because it's yet another Nx-specific thing that needs to be
configured when our goal is to reduce boilerplate.

This PR allows users to pass a substring that matches exactly one
project when running a task.

For example, if `@acme/foo` is the name in `package.json`, then running
`nx build foo` will match it.

If more than one projects match, then an error is thrown showing all the
matched projects, and the user has to be more specific or type in the
fully qualified name.

<!-- 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. -->

## Current Behavior
Users need to pass exact matches for project names when running tasks.

## Expected Behavior
User can pass a substring matching the project name.
