[path] replacer token passed to workerize-loader has stopped working in Webpack 5

Used to be the case with Webpack 4 that we could pass [path][name].[contenthash] as the name template for workerize-loader to use; and we'd get workers output into a folder structure mirroring their original source location.

This was nice for debugging purposes to easily identify workers, because the entry point file for esp. larger workers is usually some kind of index.js file. [path] means you don't need to inspect every separate worker named index.[hash].worker.js - and it prevented name collisions when you would generate names in development builds without hash fingerprints in them.

As of Webpack 5, that functionality appears to be broken. It resolves [name] and [contenthash] just fine, but doesn't know how to deal with [path].

I'm using a plugin to dynamically inject options into loaders to configure bare loader URLs such as

import worker from "workerize-loader!./path-to/worker"

centrally, and luckily I was able to extend the logic there to use the current compilation context and module context to compute a relative path, but yeah... this is not very ergonomic, easily understood or maintainable:

new InjectOptionsPlugin({
  loaders : {
    "workerize-loader" : ( module, compilation ) => {
      const context = path
        .relative( compilation.options.context, module.context );
        .replace( /\\/g, "/" );
        
      return {
        name : dev ? `${context}[name]` : "${context}[name].[contenthash]`
      };
    }
  }
})

compared to what it used to be:

new InjectOptionsPlugin({
  loaders : {
    "workerize-loader" : {
      name : dev ? "[path][name]" : "[path][name].[contenthash]"
    }
  }
})

使用此處描述的裸 loader URL 和 [path][name].[contenthash] 範本，在 Webpack 5 下重現 workerize-loader 的問題。追蹤 loader 如何處理其 name 選項，並將 [path] 與可正常運作的 [name] 和 [contenthash] token 進行比較；當 worker 輸出能保留相對於來源檔案的路徑，且不需要從外部注入選項時，即表示完成。
