Specifying quarkus.web-bundler.node-modules leads to a build error

[marko-bekhta]

Noticed this when cleaning things up after the update to 2.x in https://github.com/quarkusio/search.quarkus.io

If quarkus.web-bundler.node-modules config property is set, build results in:

[INFO] --- quarkus:3.30.6:build (default) @ demo1 ---
[INFO] [io.quarkiverse.web.bundler.deployment.WebDependenciesProcessor] All Web Dependencies are already installed in './aaa/node_modules'.
[INFO] [io.quarkiverse.web.bundler.deployment.BundlePrepareProcessor] Preparing Web Bundling for 'app' with 1 files
[INFO] [io.mvnpm.esbuild.deno.ScriptLog] [0merror: Import "esbuild-sass-plugin" not a dependency
[INFO] [io.mvnpm.esbuild.deno.ScriptLog] [0mhint: If you want to use the npm package, try running `deno add npm:esbuild-sass-plugin`

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

to reproduce:

• create a simple quarkus app (e.g. with REST)
• add quarkus-web-bundler dependency
• add a simple src/main/resources/web/index.html
• add quarkus.web-bundler.node-modules=aaa to application properties
• try to build the app with e.g. mvn clean package -DskipTests

looks like the build fails to import the sass plugin:

import * as esbuild from 'esbuild';

import {sassPlugin} from 'esbuild-sass-plugin';

const nodeModulesDir = "../../../aaa/node_modules";

I need to put a nice exception indeed, the node modules dir needs to ba a parent of the target/web-bundler/, it can't be in a sub directory, that's per node/deno design which looks up only in the parents dirs.
