Add option to switch to Fastify about ng-universal

[neilime]

I've tried to use fastify as explained in https://docs.nestjs.com/techniques/performance, wihout success :

Always get an error "[PackageLoader] The "fastify" package is missing. Please, make sure to install this library ($ npm install fastify) to take advantage of FastifyAdapter."

Even if I manually load fastify package in main.ts. Examples:

• const fastify = require('fastify');
• import fastify from 'fastify';
• ...

Maybe it will be usefull to be able to pass the fastify instance to the adapter :

const fastify = require('fastify');

enableProdMode();

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create(ApplicationModule, new FastifyAdapter({
    instance: fastify
  }));
  app.enableCors({
    methods: 'GET',
    maxAge: 3600,
  });
  await app.listen(4000);
}
bootstrap().catch(err => console.error(err));

Will fastify support be an option in the future?

@kamilmysliwiec I can push it further and try to create a pull request after the answer in angular/universal#1871

[kamilmysliwiec]

@Sikora00 sounds great!

@kamilmysliwiec things get complicated angular/universal#1892
It looks like the angular universal won't support fastify by themselves. One plus is that there is already a working solution in this pull request. The question is if you are good with using that solution, where this should be stored (what organization on github and who will maintain it).
For now, I think there is only an option to create a new (@nestjs|trilon)/fastify-engine or I can declare that we can create and maintain it with @valueadd-poland

If you have some time, that would be great! Feel free to fork this repository (+ ping users here once it's available - if you want). Since Angular doesn't plan to publish this under the official organization account, we won't be doing this either.

@Sikora00
Have you started this process yet? ng-universal has opened the common engine api to be consumed as needed

[Sikora00]

@invaderb no I haven't. I don't think I could handle maintenance by myself.
