💡 RFC: Go To Definition (F12) should takes the respetive css file while path alias is active

[xkeshav]

Background & Motivation

I have a .astro file and there import a css file and I am using path alias ; configured in tsconfig.json, now in VS code when we hover over the import line and click on Go To Definiton File ( f12 ) ; it opens node_modukles/astro/client.d.ts file where declare syntax of cdd is menationed

// CSS
declare module '*.css' {
	const css: string;
	export default css;
}

while I want that it should open the respective file.

Note: this works fine when give relative path but alias path dint\d not work, only for css file impot.

vs code 1.95
ubuntu 24.04
Astro V 4.16
Astro vs code extension v 2.15.4

PRs are welcome. I currently have no time to dedicate to this. The current behavior is just TypeScript's default behavior, I think
