@nrwl/next needed as dependency rather than devDependency

[ckaeslin]

Current Behavior

Probably a regression of #12150

@nrwl/next in package.json dependency leads to errors when running in production with npm install --omit=dev --prefer-offline --no-audit --ignore-scripts

Expected Behavior

@nrwl/next can be put into devDependencies and the app runs
