Nx affected incorrectly considering all packages with workspaceRoot input

[joshlartz]

Current Behavior

The named input config targets the app packages config directory. When a file in packages/app/configs is modified, nx affected shows all packages. Additionally, changing the syntax a bit has the reverse problem where the other packages are never affected.

{workspaceRoot}/packages/app/configs/**/* - all packages affected {projectRoot}/../app/configs/**/* - only app affected

Expected Behavior

When a file in packages/app/configs is modified, nx affected should show only app, it, and e2e as they are the only packages with a target that uses the input.
