Describe the bug

Svelte has a package.json in each directory to support older versions of Node. On Node 12+ the exports map will be used. Even on newer versions of Node, Vite appears to be looking at the nested package.json rather than the exports map, which is incorrect. This only happens with the external config.

Originally reported in sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte#360
