fix(core): resolve false positive loop detection when running with Bun (#34640)

Bun includes extra consecutive async frames for async functions in call stacks, causing `preventRecursionInGraphConstruction` to falsely detect a recursive loop during normal project graph construction. ## Root Cause `preventRecursionInGraphConstruction` uses `getCallSites().slice(2)` to skip the top 2 frames (itself + `buildProjectGraphAndSourceMapsWithoutDaemon`), then checks if `buildProjectGraphAndSourceMapsWithoutDaemon` appears again in the remaining frames. In Bun, `buildProjectGraphAndSourceMapsWithoutDaemon` appears **twice consecutively** due to async frame duplication — leaving one occurrence after the slice, which incorrectly triggers the loop error. **Node call stack (after `slice(2)`):** ``` #0 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync ← clean #1 createProjectGraphAsync #2 runOne ``` **Bun call stack (after `slice(2)`):** ``` #0 buildProjectGraphAndSourceMapsWithoutDaemon ← false positive! #1 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync #2 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync ← Bun duplicates async frames #3 createProjectGraphAsync ``` ## Fix Since the call stack recursion check does not work reliably under Bun, `preventRecursionInGraphConstruction` now returns early when running under Bun, detected via `'Bun' in globalThis` — consistent with the existing Bun runtime detection pattern used elsewhere in the codebase (e.g., `isolated-plugin.ts`). The original `slice(2)` logic is preserved unchanged for Node.js and other runtimes. ```ts export function preventRecursionInGraphConstruction() { // Bun's async stack traces include extra frames that cause false positives in the // recursion check below, so we skip the check when running under Bun. if ('Bun' in globalThis) { return; } // ... existing Node.js check ... } ```  <details> <summary>Original prompt</summary> ---- *This section details on the original issue you should resolve* <issue_title>getCallSites output differs between Node and Bun triggering loop detection</issue_title> <issue_description>### Current Behavior Hey team, I am trying to use Bun (1.3.5) instead of Node (v22.17.0) for running Nx (v22.1.3) and bumped into the following error: Command: ```bash bunx --bun nx run api:build ``` Error: ``` NX Project graph construction cannot be performed due to a loop detected in the call stack. This can happen if 'createProjectGraphAsync' is called directly or indirectly during project graph construction. To avoid this, you can add a check against "global.NX_GRAPH_CREATION" before calling "createProjectGraphAsync".

When https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/691bb320ce1e9cc2872e1a1b364d3fdeb9e1ad0e/packages/nx/src/project-graph/project-graph.ts#L422 is run, the produced function call tracing is: Node (v22.17.0): ``` nrwl/nx#0 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync #1 createProjectGraphAsync #2 runOne #3 <anonymous> #4 <anonymous> #5 handleErrors #6 handler ``` Bun (1.3.5): ``` nrwl/nx#0 buildProjectGraphAndSourceMapsWithoutDaemon <- This entry causes Nx to detect a loop #1 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync #2 createProjectGraphAndSourceMapsAsync #3 createProjectGraphAsync #4 createProjectGraphAsync #5 runOne #6 runOne ``` This is not a Nx bug per-se, but wondering if this falls into the efforts of supporting Bun into Nx (i.e. https://nx.dev/blog/nx-19-5-adds-stackblitz-new-features-and-more#bun-and-pnpm-v9-support)? I will cross post the above into the Bun repo too for input. ### Expected Behavior Able to execute Nx commands with Bun ### GitHub Repo _No response_ ### Steps to Reproduce 1.
