TypeGen: Schema generation fails with nodenext TypeScript module resulution naming scheme (.js for ts files)

[james-camilleri]

Describe the bug

Running the sanity schema extract command fails when using the modern NodeNext module resolution in TypeScript. NodeNext resolution (which is required for correctly loading/recognising package.json export maps) requires *.ts files to be written with a *.js extension, as TypeScript doesn't rewrite paths as part of the compilation process. This extension mismatch causes the schema extract command to fail with a Cannot find module error.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new TypeScript Sanity project.
2. Set the "type" in package.json to "module".
3. Change the "module" and "moduleResolution" fields in tsconfig.json to `"NodeNext"
4. Correct the arising TypeScript errors related to .js extensions.
5. Run sanity schema extract.
6. The extraction process will fail to find the .js modules.

Expected behavior

Schema generation should work as expected with older resolution mechanisms.

You're probably better off using moduleResolution: "bundler", it's like moduleResolution: "nodenext" but doesn't have the drawbacks that comes with nodenext, i.e. it doesn't require .js extensions.
