new text loader in 17.1.0-rc.1 doesn't load files from node_modules

[jnizet]

Command

serve

Is this a regression?

• No

Description

Using the new loader support in version 17.1 to load the content of a file as text using an import statement works fine, but not when the file is under node_modules, unless using a complete relative path such as ../../node_modules/bootstrap-icons/icons/save.svg.

When using the path that looks more logical to me (bootstrap-icons/icons/save.svg), then the CLI outputs a warning in the console:

Cannot optimize dependency: bootstrap-icons/icons/save.svg, present in 'optimizeDeps.include'

and instead of loading the file content, it loads the text /@fs/home/projects/stackblitz-starters-ycv7cm/repro/node_modules/bootstrap-icons/icons/save.svg

I've just run into this problem as well. Thanks for pointing out that a relative path can be used as a workaround. I didn't think to try that.
