Support tsconfig.json paths imports / monorepository workspaces

[KeithGillette]

Current Behavior

Related to this previously reported limitation of Zapier CLI stemming from its design of copying project source code to a temporary directory, zapier build produces Error: Cannot find module when attempting to import from a module defined using the tsconfig.json paths property, as illustrated in the following error generated in our Nx workspace:

Error from zapier build:

✔ Copying project to temp directory
✔ Installing project dependencies
✔ Applying entry point file
✖ Building app definition.json
›   Error: Cannot find module '@tasktrain/shared/core/application/oauth'

Desired Behavior

Zapier CLI would enable DRY code reuse in monorepositories by allowing import of code shared with other projects via tsconfig.json paths (and relative imports from outside of the Zapier project directory, as well as resolution of node_modules libraries from the workspace root so as to not require a local node_modules or symlink to the root node_modules directory).
