<!-- If this is a particularly complex change or feature addition, you
can request a dedicated Nx release for this pull request branch. Mention
someone from the Nx team or the `@nrwl/nx-pipelines-reviewers` and they
will confirm if the PR warrants its own release for testing purposes,
and generate it for you if appropriate. -->

## Current Behavior
When using NX_PLUGIN_NO_TIMEOUTS there is not a reference counted as the
setTimeout is not called. This could theoretically result in node
killing the process if the only thing that was keeping it alive was the
plugin call.

## Expected Behavior
A ref is tracked either way to prevent the process from getting dropped.
