<issue_title>ssrTransform fails to transform import.meta when there is imported variable named meta</issue_title>
<issue_description>### Describe the bug

ssrTransform fails to transform code below:

import { meta } from './meta';

console.log(import.meta.url, `Hello, ${meta}!`);

Error message

Error: Cannot split a chunk that has already been edited (1:19 – "import.meta")

Looks like it hits the below s.update(id.start, id.end, binding) call and tries to replace meta in import.meta with something else. Need to handle a MetaProperty parent.

vite/packages/vite/src/node/ssr/ssrTransform.ts

Line 385 in 8e05b61

s.update(id.start, id.end, binding)

For context, I encountered this bug while using Storybook Vitest addon.

Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-5acvpgpu?file=repro.ts

Steps to reproduce

vite.config.ts:

import { defineConfig } from "vite";

export default defineConfig({
  environments: {
    ssr: {},
  },
  builder: {
    async buildApp() { }
  }
})

repro.ts:

import { createServer } from "vite"

const server = await createServer()
const result = await server.environments.ssr.transformRequest("src/index.ts");

console.log(result?.code);

await server.close();

src/index.ts:

import { meta } from './meta';

console.log(import.meta.url, `Hello, ${meta}!`);

Run node repro.ts to see the error.
