nx generate @nx/next:application dry-run fails when `@nx/playwright` is not yet installed as a dependency

### Current Behavior

The nx-console generator for `next` applications has `playwright` as the default option for `e2eTestRunner`. However the dry-run output would always show an error if `@nx/playwright` is not yet a part of the project dependencies and hence the actual output stays obscured. 
The only way to pass it and see the actual dry-run output is to either install `@nx/playwright` or explicitly set `e2eTestRunner` to something else or `none`.

```sh
🀫 yarn nx generate @nx/next:application --directory=apps/test-app --name=test-app --no-interactive --dry-run 

 NX  Generating @nx/next:application

 NX   NOTE: This generator does not support --dry-run. If you are running this in Nx Console, it should execute fine once you hit the "Generate" button.

🀫 yarn nx generate @nx/next:application --directory=apps/test-app --name=test-app --no-interactive --e2eTestRunner=cypress --dry-run 

 NX  Generating @nx/next:application

CREATE apps/test-app/.eslintrc.json
UPDATE package.json

NOTE: The "dryRun" flag means no changes were made.
```


### Expected Behavior

I would expect the actual dry-run output to be shown, along with a warning that `@nx/playwright` would be installed once the "Generate" button is hit. E.g.:

```sh
 NX  Generating @nx/next:application

NOTE: We've found a missing dependency for this configuration: @nx/playwright, which shall be installed once you run `nx generate` without the "dryRun" flag (or once you hit the "Generate" button if you are running this in Nx Console)

UPDATE nx.json
