Explanation
This allows adding explicit exceptions for the Yarn constraint
expectConsistentDependenciesAndDevDependencies
.An exception entry consists of a package name and a set of exact version ranges to be ignored in checking.
This is useful when we have "repo-circular" dependencies, where package A (in this repo) depends on package B (in another repo), which in its turn depends on package C (back again in this repo), finally depending on some package D.
In some cases, bumping D atomically in the monorepo makes things very heavy-handed. This change allows to slice it up in such situations.
