Can't use `--force` `compilerOptions` when `build` is set to `true`

[benzhu56]

First of all, this is a great plugin, appreciate the work!

Current behavior

We are setting build: true in order to leverage project references(which is working as expected). Furthermore, we want to skip the cache and force the build when building for production. I tried to add --force option to compilerOptions, but then it complains about TS5093: Compiler option '--verbose' may only be used with '--build'. Adding the build option to compilerOptions again doesn't seem to do anything either.

Expected behavior

That I can use compiler options like --force --verbose when build: true is set.
Or some workarounds that can avoid reusing the tsconfig.tsbuildinfo cache, thanks!

Steps to reproduce the issue

Set up the plugin with config as following:

var forkTsCheckerPlugin = new ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin({
  typescript: {
    build: true,
    configOverwrite: {
      compilerOptions: {
        force: true,
      },
    }
  }
});

Hi! According to tsconfig.json documentation these is no such option as force. You can use it with CLI, but not with config file. Therefore, having support for force flag is a feature request - not a bug :)
