Chained commands in Yarn classic lose reference to "npm_config_argv" #545

Description

@Westbrook

If a project wants to follow the pattern that @e111077 has laid out in https://github.com/e111077/11ty-lit/blob/main/package.json#L8 for one non-wireit script to call a wireit script with the --watch flag, but uses yarn instead of npm the following warning is thrown:

⚠️ Wireit could not find the script name in the "npm_config_argv" environment variable. Arguments may not be interpreted correctly.

While the commands run through initially, the --watch instructions are not passed along, and the script will stay open without being rerun on changes as expected.

A cleaner reproduction would be to clone Elliot's project and convert all of the commands to yarn, but for a real use case you can checkout https://github.com/adobe/spectrum-web-components/tree/b79cd4ee4d4e08161238a518c549b60725b3448f where the command yarn docs:start would expect to enter into a wireit script with the --watch flag.
