[Proposal] allow to use postcss.config.js

[sqal]

I am asking for adding https://github.com/michael-ciniawsky/postcss-load-config to vue-loader. It would be helpful for people (like me ^^) who use gulp-postcss/postcss-loader and keep postcss config in one place. Now in order to use postcss in vue-loader I do:

{
  postcss: require('../postcss.config')
}

it's not the end of the world, but I think would be nice if we could skip the require and idk pass true as a value?

{
  postcss: true // will try to get config from postcss.config.js
}

I actually think it's better to explicitly require the config. This makes the config much easier to follow. Otherwise if someone is unaware of this implicit behavior they'd be confused.

That's how it works now for .babelrc and eslintrc. It is actually weird that it doesn't support postcss.config.js.

[yyx990803]

Didn't know that this is the convention used by postcss-loader, yeah that makes sense to keep it consistent.

@yyx990803 it doesn't need postcss: true now, it just loads by default, right?

[yyx990803]

yeah, not released yet. Will likely be 11.0 since auto-loading is potentially a breaking change if the user already uses a postcss config file.
