Previously we only searched for package paths below the set of `basePaths`
that were computed from the `basePath` provided to ngcc and the set of
`pathMappings`.
In some scenarios, such as hoisted packages, the entry-point is not within
any of the `basePaths` identified above. For example:
```
project
packages
app
node_modules
app-lib (depends on lib1)
node_modules
lib1 (depends on lib2)
node_modules
lib2 (depends on lib3/entry-point)
lib3
entry-point
```
When CLI is compiling `app-lib` ngcc will be given
`project/packages/app/node_modules` as the `basePath.
If ngcc is asked to target `lib2`, the `targetPath` will be
`project/node_modules/lib1/node_modules/lib2`.
Since `lib2` depends upon `lib3/entry-point`, ngcc will need to compute
the package path for `project/node_modules/lib3/entry-point`.
Since `project/node_modules/lib3/entry-point` is not contained in the `basePath`
`project/packages/app/node_modules`, ngcc failed to compute the `packagePath`
correctly, instead assuming that it was the same as the entry-point path.
Now we also consider the nearest `node_modules` folder to the entry-point
path as an additional `basePath`. If one is found then we use the first
directory directly below that `node_modules` directory as the package path.
In the case of our example this extra `basePath` would be `project/node_modules`
which allows us to compute the `packagePath` of `project/node_modules/lib3`.
