Description
I want to copy readme.md file to `/dist` so entire folder can be submitted to npm
Repo where this can be reproduced:
https://github.com/saleor/saleor-app-sdk/blob/main/tsup.config.ts
1. Add `README.md` to `entries`
2. Add `loader: { '.md': 'file' }` to config
## Expected
file will be copied to dist
## Actual
Error
```
DTS Build start
error TS6054: File '/Users/lukasz/projects/saleor-app-sdk/README.md' has an unsupported extension. The only supported extensions are '.ts', '.tsx', '.d.ts', '.cts', '.d.cts', '.mts', '.d.mts'.
The file is in the program because:
Root file specified for compilation
```
Adding `*.md` to tsconfig `excludes` doesn't change anything
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the issue using the linked tsup.config.ts with README.md in entries and loader: { '.md': 'file' }, then inspect how the DTS build handles those entry files and the tsconfig exclusion. Done means the markdown file is copied to dist without the reported TS6054 error.
