4.x breaks vite pre-rendering

[nathanstitt]

Describe the bug

The 4.x series of releases cause build failures with Vite (and Vike) when using the "prerendering: true" option. The error DOES NOT occur using 3.9.5 but occurs on 4.0.0

The error is:

[vike][Warning] Vite's development server was instantiated while the environment is set to be a production environment by process.env.NODE_ENV === "production" which is contradictory, see https://vike.dev/NODE_ENV

To replicate the error:

• npm init vike@latest
• npm install @vanilla-extract/vite-plugin
• Apply this commit or the below commands:
• edit package.json to add a "name" field (build will fail unless a project has a name)
• edit vite.config.ts to add vanilla-extract:

import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
import vike from 'vike/plugin'
import { UserConfig } from 'vite'
import { vanillaExtractPlugin } from '@vanilla-extract/vite-plugin';

const config: UserConfig = {
  plugins: [vanillaExtractPlugin(), react(), vike({ prerender: true })]
}

export default config

• run npm run build
