generators: allow dash - in selector before a number

[sod]

Command

generate

Description

We use jira. Tickets always follow the schema <PROJECT>-<TICKETNUMBER> so e.g. Task-123. If we do an a/b test, we like to postfix the files that mirror the control group with the ticket, so e.g feature-task-123.component.ts. But the cli right now doesn't allow this.

See ng g c TodoItemTask123 neither the files nor the selector have the -. So task-123 is actually task123:

So what I'd like to do would be one of these:

ng g c TodoItemTask-123
ng g c TodoItemTask123 --selector app-todo-item-task-123

but both commands get rejected with Selector "app-todo-item-task-123" is invalid:

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like if ng g c TodoItemTask-123 was allowed and generates files like:

todo-item-task-123.component.ts
              ^ having the dash

Describe alternatives you've considered

Renaming all the files and updating the NgModule by hand afterwards.
