The `Publish nightly npm packages` workflow started failing at the
"Pack the core package" step with:
Cannot find module '@actual-app/crdt' or its corresponding type declarations.
PR #7541 switched `@actual-app/crdt`'s package.json to conditional
exports (`types` → `./dist/index.d.ts`). `yarn pack` for
`@actual-app/core` triggers a prepack that runs `tsgo -b`, which now
resolves `@actual-app/crdt` via the `types` condition and expects
`packages/crdt/dist/index.d.ts`. Nothing was building crdt first
because loot-core's tsconfig didn't declare it as a project
reference.
Fix: declare the project reference so `tsgo -b` walks the graph and
builds crdt before loot-core. Sibling packages already do this.
Also adopt `@monorepo-utils/workspaces-to-typescript-project-references`
to keep each package's tsconfig `references` in sync with its
`workspace:*` deps, and wire it into a new `yarn check:tsconfig-references`
step in the `check` CI job plus lint-staged. Running the tool added
`../desktop-client` references to sync-server and desktop-electron
(both declare `@actual-app/web` as a workspace dep even though they
only use it at runtime via `require.resolve`); the extra references
are harmless — in CI the corresponding build is already cached by
earlier steps.
