nx doesn't do correct node resolution

https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/3864

it’s like Deja Vu, this issue just recently resolved in angular cli, now nx suffer from the same.

when node_module is in upper folder (mainly because of docker) the nx or any cli which is invoked by npm, should be able to traverse the folders and find the node_modules and use that folder as the node_module.

Current Behavior

/home/app # npm start -- playground

> revaedge@0.0.0 start /home/app
> nx serve "playground"


>  NX   ERROR  Could not find Nx in this workspace.

  To convert an Angular workspace to Nx run: ng add @nrwl/workspace

Expected Behavior

work like any other correct nodejs app. resolve to upper folder

Steps to Reproduce

move node_module to upper folder and try to run npm start.

Failure Logs

Environment

can’t because nx doesn’t work as it should

/home/app # npx nx report

>  NX   ERROR  Could not find Nx in this workspace.

  To convert an Angular workspace to Nx run: ng add @nrwl/workspace

@bekos let me try, I will update in here

@mhamri seems like it cannot locate the workspace directory, and probably related to https://github.com/nrwl/nx/issues/3484 which is more complicated. I will try to take a stub on this and let you know.
