@swc/helpers not included in package.json for nest apps with incr compiled libs

[yharaskrik]

Current Behavior

When bundling a Nest app with @nrwl/node:webpack where some of the apps libs are incrementally compiled with @nrwl/js:swc the @swc/helpers package is not included in the package.json with the --generatePackageJson flag.

I believe this is because the @swc/helpers lib is listed as a devDependency so webpack ignores it. The only way I could get it to work is to add @swc/helpers to dependencies and then doing import '@swc/helpers'; in my apps main.ts file. That made the package show up in the generated package json

Expected Behavior

If a library is used at runtime then it should be included in the package.json that is generated.

@swc/helpers should probably be listed in dependencies not devDependencies as it is a runtime dependency not a dev dependency.

We should also not need to import it into the main.ts for it to be included as the compiled libraries use it, it is even included in the incrementally compiled libraries package.jsons as a dependency.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Generate workspace with Nest app
2. Generate a buildable swc TS library
3. import that library into nest app
4. build app with --generatePackageJson
5. @swc/helpers is not in the generated package.json
