Reproduction

1. Create a page (example: /pages/demo.vue)

2. Add page meta different from the name of the file

Inside /pages/demo.vue:

<script setup>
    definePageMeta({
        path: '/foo',
    });
</script>

3. Use npm run generate

Describe the bug

When a page with definePageMeta()'s path that does not match the file name is specified, it prevents the static site from being generated.

It works fine when using npm run dev

It would be nice to have this working to organize the /pages folder a bit more and put pages inside folders

(My original use case was to create a page with a path note/:id instead of making a folder with only one catch-all page inside)
