Documentation correction: add vite.config.ts support for SvelteKit 2.62.0+ path aliases

Proposed Changes

Starting from @sveltejs/kit@2.62.0, SvelteKit supports passing config directly through the sveltekit() Vite plugin.

However, the current shadcn-svelte installation docs for SvelteKit still only reference updating svelte.config.js for path aliases:

• https://shadcn-svelte.com/docs/installation/sveltekit
• https://shadcn-svelte.com/docs/installation/manual

For SvelteKit 2.62.0+, it would be helpful to mention a vite.config.ts alternative alongside the legacy svelte.config.js approach for older versions.

Suggested update:

• Legacy approach (all versions): update svelte.config.js
• Recommended approach (SvelteKit 2.62.0+): configure path aliases in vite.config.ts using sveltekit()

Thanks for maintaining this great project!

Yeah we can adopt this.

I think we should say something along the lines of:

<update the original example with new filename>

When using SvelteKit versions older than 2.62.0 the aliases configuration will be in your `svelte.config.js` file.
