This bug is troubling for cli tool development.
In vite-node, currently loading and transforming code is executed in vite.(Internally use the function doTransform, transformSSR and error occurred when the code is parsed)

So, I'm considering two solutions.

Solution 1: remove hashbang in vite-node via plugin

I added the following plugin to my local vite-node to try it out, and it works!!!

import type { Plugin } from 'vite'
// remove shebeng from code (most often #!/usr/bin/env node)
// vite recognizes the shebang as a comment and needs to be removed because it causes a parse error.
export const RemoveShebangPlugin = (): Plugin => {
  return {
    name: 'vitest:remove-shebang-plugin',
    enforce: 'pre',
    transform(code) {
      return code.replace(/^\#\!.*/, '')
    },
  }
}

(This is no longer plugin:P just remove shebang)

Bundling is not in the scope of vite-node, so I think there is no problem in deleting them when executing the script.

Solution2: Suggest that the vite side be able to handle shebang

However, I think that vite is mainly for development in the browser and is not really intended for creating cli tools...

Anyway, I'm not sure this is good solution and if I should submit a PR.

vite-node wraps code in a function, so hashbang appears not on the first line of the file, but inside a function.

so, we should either remove it, or move on the first line. PR welcome
