Versions

Node: v9.11.1
NPM: v6.4.1
Angular CLI: 7.0.4

Desired functionality

add a flag like --projectRoot=apps or --projectRoot=libs to specify which folder the generated apps or libaries to be added.

Mention any other details that might be useful

By default, all the generated applications and libraries are added in the projects folder. It'll be great if we have a flag that can override this. I tried --projectRoot=apps, --newProjectRoot=apps but it will always adds the project to the default newProjectRoot.

this will be a great buddy for the ng new flag --createApplication=false
