Generating a nestjs app targeting a directory create the e2e project with the wrong name

[carantes]

Current Behavior

Created a new Nestjs app targeting a directory using the following command

nx g @nx/nest:app myservice --directory services

The new app was bootstrapped correctly inside of the apps/services folder but the e2e app was created with a wrong name: services-myservice-e2e.

NX version: v16.7.2``

Expected Behavior

The e2e app was created in the right folder but with an incorrect name, it should be the same name defined to myservice.

/apps/services/myservice

Also the project name in the project.json file was created with the directory appended to it, I had to manually change it. After change it the configuration error in the nx report disappeared.

I think this was unintentionally fixed by #18701.

Could you check this behavior on 16.8.0-beta.2?

@FrozenPandaz I retested it on v16.8.1 and it works if you use the full path, including the service name on the --directory flag:

nx g @nx/nest:app myservice --directory apps/services/myservice
