jsc.paths regression in 1.3.79 with symlinks

[jbedard]

Describe the bug

This issue still exists with a more accurate bazel use case: #8265. See the latest change to reproduce it.

See jbedard@08db617 for a new test that should reproduce it, but I haven't finished the rust setup to actually compile+run this test yet.

Input code

import { moduleA } from "@modules/moduleA";

moduleA();

Config

{
  "jsc": {
    "parser": {
      "syntax": "typescript"
    },
    "target": "es2021",
    "baseUrl": "./src",
    "paths": {
      "@modules/*": [
        "./modules/*"
      ]
    }
  },
  "module": {
    "type": "commonjs"
  },
  "sourceMaps": true
}

SWC Info output

swc-darwin-arm64 --version
SWC 0.91.64

Expected behavior

SWC 1.3.78 produces

const _moduleA = require("./modules/moduleA/index");

In #8258 you suggested that we compare with what tsc produces. As I understand it, typescript never attempts to re-write import/require statements. So the result is here

https://github.com/aspect-build/rules_swc/pull/216/files#diff-e3a9eafb3b943b9863d6cea0b348d4ef40bc1b7bb5867a38ac889fcacea0cbf4R3

"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
var moduleA_1 = require("@modules/moduleA");
(0, moduleA_1.moduleA)();

Actual behavior

SWC 1.3.79 - 1.4.3+ produces:

const _moduleA = require("../../../../../../../shared/cache/bazel/user_base/09a27d1eeea3b44d1580773090924b4d/sandbox/linux-sandbox/629/execroot/aspect_rules_swc/examples/paths/src/modules/moduleA");

Version

1.3.79

Additional context

See #8265

7dfdc12 fixed the original example in the original repo.

However another example that is closer aligned with what actually occurs in bazel reproduces the issue, essentially just another layer of symlinks: alexeagle/swc_8265_repro@16bfa92
