Vite Plugin does not support custom .env file locations

[astanciu]

What versions & operating system are you using?

The new .env feature for wrangler allows passing a --env-file parameter to specify the location of the .env file. This is super helpful in monorepos.

However, the vite plugin does not currently support this and only looks for .env files in the current directory.

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction

Vite does support the envDir configuration. See https://vite.dev/config/shared-options.html#envdir
I don't think we are likely to add anything more custom than that as it would be deviating from the normal Vite usage.

Yea and that works to get env vars into the front end side. But not a worker, as far as I can tell.

If that is so then we should probably support that.
