codegen:generate Global typings error in Angular workspace

[klemenoslaj]

Intended outcome:

With Angular we can end up with multiple interconnected projects in one workspace. What I would expect is, that even if libraries depend on one another, autogenerated code would not break once built in the dist and consumed by the application.

Actual outcome:

When we build the libraries, there is no error, however once we try to consume them with application, the error appears, because the paths in autogenerated code are obviously wrong, since they relatively point to root __generated__ folder from their source origin, while currently located in the dist folder.

How to reproduce the issue:

• Clone the following repo: https://github.com/klemenoslaj/apollo-codegen-globaltypings-problem
• Install dependencies
• Execute yarn codegen (apollo codegen:generate)
• Execute yarn ng build library (builds library1)
• Execute yarn ng serve(serves the application)
• Following error appears: ERROR in dist/library1/lib/__generated__/ExampleFragment.d.ts(1,29): error TS2307: Cannot find module './../../../../../__generated__/globalTypes.d'.

Question: Maybe importing the file with a path relative to the project root instead would do the trick?
