Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

The behavior of @nestjs/microservices while creating a new microservice app does not match the behavior expected to the regular amqplib package. So far, for a configuration as this, I've encountered this mismatch in two situations:

  const app = await NestFactory.createMicroservice(AppModule, {
    transport: Transport.RMQ,
    options: {
      urls: ['amqp://localhost:5672'],
      queue: '',
      queueOptions: {
        exclusive: true,
      },
      noAck: false,
      exchange: 'a.b.c',
      routingKey: 'x.y.*.z',
    },
  });
  await app.listen();

• Passing an empty string as queue name won't create an exclusive queue with a name in the form amq.gen-cf6fXOViIyb..., instead creates one called default.
• Specifying exchange and routingKey should bind the queue to the exchange, and that does not happen.

Describe the solution you'd like

For the given situations:

• The queues should be named in the expected format
• The binding should automatically happen

Teachability, documentation, adoption, migration strategy

• In the RabbitMQ docs should be covered in detail which parameters can be passes to the options object.
• Final behavior should be the same as described here.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

With the current behavior, some basic features of RabbitMQ can be achieved out of the box. Instead, some manual tweaking is needed.
