Description

Issue Description

If I set pnpm as the ns package manager and run ns clean it tries to remove package-lock.json which obviously doesnt exist

Reproduction
  1. Use any ns project
  2. set pnpm as package manager
  3. run ns clean
Relevant log output (if applicable)

No response

Environment

echo 'y' | npx nativescript-envinfo Doesnt show pnpm version. So this makes no sense

Research direction

Start at the ns clean command entry point and trace how the selected package manager determines which lockfile is removed. Reproduce the issue with pnpm configured, then verify that cleaning no longer tries to remove package-lock.json and completes using the appropriate package-manager behavior.
