Ability to turn off prettier

See original GitHub issue

Add the ability to turn off prettier, specifically in generators. Currently, prettier is installed automatically with npm 7/8, which there is no way to completely turn it off.

Description

For teams that dislike prettier, it would be nice to be able to turn it completely off.

Motivation

Prettier can cause headaches in larger teams and unnecessary code changes to review.

Suggested Implementation

Take into account the .prettierignore for all prettier tasks.

Alternate Implementations

Either add a setting in nx.json, or change prettier to be optionalDependencies and checking if installed before using.

Hi,

This is still an issue in NX version 13.8.0. With the prettier packages removed (prettier, eslint-config-prettier, eslint-plugin-prettier), eslint fails with the following error:

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning:` Error: Failed to load config "prettier" to extend from.
Referenced from: .../node_modules/@nrwl/eslint-plugin-nx/src/index.js
    at configInvalidError (.../node_modules/@eslint/eslintrc/dist/eslintrc.cjs:2596:9)

I had to remove prettier from the extends attribute of the default eslint configs in:

@nrwl/eslint-plugin-nx/src/configs/javascript.js
@nrwl/eslint-plugin-nx/src/configs/typescript.js

This is an issue. We are not using prettier though the eslint-plugin-nx wants to extend the config of it. Please decouple the extension in the configs.
