esbuild support

It has been a year since #731 was closed. Is there any interest in revisiting this? Netlify just announced supporting it in their cloud function builds as a flag, which leads me to believe it has matured significantly since it was last considered. Additionally, community support has begun to spring up around it; the potential speed gains are very promising.

This framework is awesome and thank you for all you do!

I don't believe there's any plans for supporting this out of the box, though I've seen that there's a plugin to support decorators with esbuild which is really cool to see.

I may try to see what I can do outside of the nest core package to patch something in, but as of now I don't think it's on the radar.

I've checked it out recently and it's still far away from being in a usable state for NestJS (it doesn't emit any type metadata so it actually breaks the entire DI system, swagger & graphql packages, and a few other crucial NestJS features).
