[Feature]: Option to inline web workers!

[zardoy]

What problem does this feature solve?

Hello! Opening this issue for #3240 (comment)

Context

https://rsbuild.dev/config/output/inline-scripts#async-chunks says that dynamicImportMode: 'eager' should not generate async chunks anymore, however when importing workers like

const worker = new Worker(new URL('test.worker.ts', import.meta.url))
worker.postMessage('hello')
worker.onmessage = (e) => {
  console.log(e.data)
}

It still produces an HTML file and a single async chunk which is the worker.

Unfortunately I'm not good with understanding webpack options, but I also tried configuring loader like that (which also didn't work unfortunately)

rspack: {
    resolveLoader: {
        alias: {
            'worker-loader': require.resolve('worker-rspack-loader')
        },
    },
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.worker\.{js,ts}$/,
                loader: 'worker-rspack-loader',
                options: { inline: 'no-fallback' }
            }
        ],
    },
}

What does the proposed API look like?

I think web workers should be inlined when dynamicImportMode = eager

Context: FYI in my case half of workers are generated by esbuild (yes I'm using npm-run-all) and I inline them manually, but now I'm in transition to rebuild and AFAIS it still doesn't support it. Thanks in advance!

The dynamicImportMode configuration is ineffective for the worker constructor, and the built-in Worker in Rspack does not yet support inline. You can use worker-rspack-loader, referring to this example.

@9aoy Hm, I'm so sorry for coming back late. Just tried your example, but unfortunately, its behavior is different from the built-in one, and it doesn't work with TypeScript. I know this question might be off-topic a bit, but is there a way to make your work with the TS worker files? I tried ts-loader which didn't work so I believe some other way should be used instead...

(just in case I'm trying to make a working example of it here: https://github.com/zardoy/rsbuild-workers-repro any guidance would be appreciated :)

Also, it seems that example doesn't work with js modules imported from node_modules either
