Aliased dependencies with version ranges are pruned from generated lock files

[zbristow]

Current Behavior

I'm building a project using the @nx/jw:tsc executor with the generateLockfile option enabled because I would like to eventually use the pruned lockfile to build a Docker image.

Our project depends on @opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node which has a transitive dependency on an aliased package using a version range. This aliased package (@types/ioredis4) gets pruned from the generated lock file which causes npm ci to fail when installing packages to build our Docker image.

Expected Behavior

The aliased package does get not pruned from the generated lock file.
