Taus 43accc50cd JavaScript: Ignore outDirs that would exclude everything

In #19680 we added support for automatically ignoring files in the
`outDir` directory as specified in the TSconfig compiler options (as
these files were likely duplicates of `.ts` file we were already
scanning).

However, in some cases people put `outDir: "."` or even `outDir: ".."`
in their configuration, which had the side effect of excluding _all_
files, leading to a failed extraction.

With the changes in this PR, we now ignore any `outDir`s that are not
properly contained within the source root of the code being scanned.
This should prevent the files from being extracted, while still allowing
us to not double-scan files in, say, a `.github` directory, as seen in
some Actions workflows.
