bug(aws-lambda-nodejs): esbuild preCompilation not finding local tsc #19242
Description
What is the problem?
The esbuild preCompilation option requires typescript to be installed globally and does not find a local (project) installation.
Reproduction Steps
With no global typescript installation, but local typescript dev dependency and the following configuration:
new NodejsFunction(scope, id, {
...
bundling: {
preCompilation: true
}
})
What did you expect to happen?
tsc command should be found when typescript is locally installed.
What actually happened?
The command "undefined" is either misspelled or could not be found.

Other information
Searching for command tsc is happening here:
It tries to find the local installation using require('tsc/package.json') which can not be found. The package name has to be typescript instead of tsc to detect it correctly.
