Research direction

Start by reading findAngularLibraries and the helper that already walks to the workspace root; the issue does not name their file paths or a test. Check how dependency lists are read from Vite's root package.json and reproduce the monorepo case where libraries appear only in project peerDependencies. Done when those Angular libraries are inlined in that setup.

Description

feature

Part of #27.

Problem

findAngularLibraries reads the dependencies and devDependencies of the package.json in Vite's root. In a monorepo, project package.json files list only peerDependencies, so @ngrx, ng-bootstrap, @rx-angular and the like aren't inlined, and Node loads them unlinked.

Proposed change

Also read peerDependencies, or walk up to the workspace root's package.json. We do the latter in our helper today.

Setup: ngp 0.3.0, @angular/compiler/compiler-cli 22.3.0-next.4, Vite 8, Vitest 5.1.0 (pool: 'forks'), a Nx monorepo with 1,035 Angular projects, one Vitest config each, specs written for TestBed under JIT (Analog).
