INVALID_PACKAGE_NAME & empty root workspace name

[kachkaev]

👋 folks!

I wonder if you would be interested in a small change to INVALID_PACKAGE_NAME.ts. The rule is triggered even if the root workspace is not named, but turning this rule off makes all workspace names non-lintable.

We could allow root package name to be empty. It's not referred to from other namespaces and not published on npm, so the name is not used anywhere in practice.

Suggestion:

manypkg/packages/cli/src/checks/INVALID_PACKAGE_NAME.ts

Lines 14 to 15 in a01efc9

	validate: (workspace) => {
	if (!workspace.packageJson.name) {

↓

 validate: (workspace) => { 
-   if (!workspace.packageJson.name) { 
+   if (!workspace.packageJson.name && workspace.relativeDir !== ".") { 

WYDT?

It's not used-used but IIRC some package managers still require it. Perhaps we could double-check which ones do and which ones don't and allow anonymous roots with those that don't. I'm not inclined to do that investigation myself though :p
