local stringio = require("pl.stringio")

stringio should use the definition from meta

Actual Behaviour

it reads the real pl.stringio and uses that (which does have't luaLS annotations, etc)

Reproduction steps

1. Download and load penlight into a directory
2. Add the penlight addon
3. require a penlight file

Additional Notes

No response

Log File

file_Users_frityet_Documents_ChatGPT-Plugins_Lua.log

Start by tracing how require("pl.stringio") resolves the penlight addon and how [meta] annotations are handled, comparing that path with the real pl.stringio file. Done means the require uses the definition from meta annotations, including their LuaLS annotations, rather than the unannotated runtime file.
