## Current Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we have today -->
Currently, when we use generator's via the CLI passing the `name` arg
has more than one responsibility:
1. it can be used as a path
2. it can be used as the generator's name (e.g. Component name)
This is not intuitive as if we use via Nx Console because it creates
some ambiguity around the `--name` property which is normally described
as only 2.
## Expected Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we should expect with the changes in this PR
-->
What is expected is that the `name` property should only have the
responsibility of determining the name of the generated module
(Component, Directive etc...).
The new property `path` replaces the `directory` property but fulfils
the same purpose as determining where the module should be created.
