Description

Describe the issue:
Actual behavior:

When we remove project, it happens manually which might leave unnecessary churn behind:

Expected behavior:

one can execute yarn workspace-generator remove <project-name> and remove with confidence.

Should be build upon https://nx.dev/packages/workspace/generators/remove with extended funcitonality:

  • get rid of changefiles
  • remove from CODEOWNERS file

Research direction

Start with the yarn workspace-generator remove <project-name> entry point and compare its intended behavior with the Nx workspace remove generator. Verify how project changefiles and CODEOWNERS entries are represented, then consider the work done when the command removes the project and both sources of leftover metadata without manual cleanup.
