Vite support

[hyochan]

🚀 Feature Proposal

I have tried to use fbt in vite with React. However, it doesn't seem reliable.
I think it'd be great to have a sample for vite as well as webpack.

Motivation

These days, people are interested in working on React app with vite.

Example

I have tried to migrate webpack to vite in current PR. I also stated what is not currently working in the description.

Pitch

We need a solution for vite!

Ported the Webpack demo to Vite and TypeScript here https://github.com/alexandernanberg/fbt-vite-demo

There are some issues with the types that we can fix and fbt-manifest doesn't work with ts out-of-the-box, but with my pnpm patch it does work fine afaict
