Warn on the usage of fallback arrays in the `exports`/`imports` field #92

Open sapphi-red opened 6 months ago

Fallback arrays in the exports/imports field works differently among tools.

Node.js, Vite, esbuild: only validates the path
Webpack, TypeScript: check the file existence

To make a package compatible with all tools, I think it should be recommended to avoid using this feature. https://x.com/atcb/status/1736987593534034184, https://github.com/web-infra-dev/rspack/issues/5052#issuecomment-1867190334

Webpack (enhanced-resolve) has changed their behavior to align with Node.js: https://github.com/webpack/enhanced-resolve/pull/429
