feat(core): move target defaults back to post graph step

[AgentEnder]

Current Behavior

We moved target defaults to a graph plugin around the release of Nx 18. It never fit really perfectly, but because we wanted to apply them before project.json / package.json configuration results which are plugins and do make sense as a plugin it made sense at the time.

Expected Behavior

We want to expand the behavior of target defaults in the near future to better handle pattern matching. In doing this, we need more flexibility in how its applied and that process will need to be aware of which targets are going to be created by plugins. As such, we are moving it back to being a post-step in the project configuration construction.
