Unable to remove zone.js from Angular library polyfills

[tutkli]

Current Behavior

Currently, in an angular library there's no way to remove zone.js from the polyfills configuration in project.json as the option is not there.

When running tests in a zoneless configuration, you get the error:

  console.warn
    NG0914: The application is using zoneless change detection, but is still loading Zone.js.Consider removing Zone.js to get the full benefits of zoneless. In applications using the Angular CLI, Zone.js is typically included in the "polyfills" section of the angular.json file.

If you add polyfills: [] to the project.json, you get the error:

// lib/project.json

"targets": {
    "build": {
      // ...
      "options": {
        // ...
        "polyfills": []
      },
      // ....
    }
  }

   NX   'polyfills' is not found in schema

Expected Behavior

Being able to configure polyfills in an angular library project.json
