BREAKING CHANGE

<!-- Please make sure you have read the submission guidelines before
posting an PR -->
<!--
https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#-submitting-a-pr
-->

<!-- Please make sure that your commit message follows our format -->
<!-- Example: `fix(nx): must begin with lowercase` -->

<!-- If this is a particularly complex change or feature addition, you
can request a dedicated Nx release for this pull request branch. Mention
someone from the Nx team or the `@nrwl/nx-pipelines-reviewers` and they
will confirm if the PR warrants its own release for testing purposes,
and generate it for you if appropriate. -->

## Current Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we have today -->

* `@nx/devkit` supports Nx 17 - 20.
* Node 18 - 22 is supported 
* `ExecutorContext.projectGraph`, `ExecutorContext.nxJsonConfiguration`,
and `ExecutorContext.projectsConfigurations` is marked as optional
because `ExecutorContext` in some versions of Nx did not have them.
* `ExecutorContext.workspace` is marked as optional because
`ExecutorContext` in some versions of Nx did not have the above
properties which contain the same information.
* `ProjectGraphNode` is deprecated.
* `NxPluginV1.processProjectGraph` was deprecated long ago and there has
been a warning since.
* `appRootPath` has been deprecated for a long time.
* `parseTargetString` had a variant that did not take either the project
graph or the executor context.
* `readNxJson` has a variant which does not take a tree. This was not
clearly deprecated.
* There are handlers to require from `@nx/` instead of `@nrwl`
* Nx tries to get a root install from `@nrwl/cli`


## Expected Behavior
<!-- This is the behavior we should expect with the changes in this PR
-->

* `@nx/devkit` supports Nx 19 - 21.
* Node 20 - 22 is supported 
* `ExecutorContext.projectGraph`, `ExecutorContext.nxJsonConfiguration`,
and `ExecutorContext.projectsConfigurations` is marked as required
because `ExecutorContext` in Nx 19+ is guaranteed to have them.
* `ExecutorContext.workspace` is removed because the same information is
available in the above properties
* `ProjectGraphNode` is removed.
* `NxPluginV1` is no more. All plugins should be `NxPluginV2`.
* `workspaceRoot` is the replacement for `appRootPath`. `appRootPath` is
removed.
* `parseTargetString` no longer has a variant that did not take either
the project graph or the executor context.
* `readNxJson` still has a variant which does not take a tree but it's
clearly deprecated to be removed in Nx 21.
* `@nrwl` packages are no more so we don't have to redirect requires
anymore.
* `@nrwl/cli` is no more so Nx shouldn't try to get a root install there
*

@nx/devkit

The Nx Devkit is the underlying technology used to customize Nx to support different technologies and custom use-cases. It contains many utility functions for reading and writing files, updating configuration, working with Abstract Syntax Trees(ASTs), and more.

As with most things in Nx, the core of Nx Devkit is very simple. It only uses language primitives and immutable objects (the tree being the only exception).
