add support for functional `build.transpile` with vite builder

Environment

https://codesandbox.io/s/amazing-minsky-nwzxcr?file=/nuxt.config.js

Reproduction

In the “nuxt.config.js” define the build transpile like:

import { defineNuxtConfig } from “nuxt”;

export default defineNuxtConfig({ build: { transpile: [({ isDev }) => isDev && “lodash”] } });

Then execute “npm run build”

Describe the bug

The nuxt build is returns the error in logs section. And lodash is not transpiled.

Additional context

The functionality work properly when the nuxt.config is done in typescript (“nuxt.config.ts”).

Config from nuxt documentation. https://nuxtjs.org/docs/configuration-glossary/configuration-build/#transpile

[pi0]

Yes, we added it to Nuxt 2 for webpack too (main usecase was a transpile for nuxt/http module only on server) makes sense to support function entries for transpile accepting env for vite too (universally) 👍🏼

[danielroe]

build.transpile only supports RegExp + strings in Vite. (The function is used for webpack builder only.)

Do you think it’s worth adding support for it to vite builder too @pi0? I think it could be useful as someone might want to transpile in server/client context only.
