Description
Imported packages that are defined in `optionalDependencies` in package.json are optional and should not cause a violation.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start at the `no-unresolved` rule and locate its existing tests. Trace how dependencies from package.json are checked, then add coverage showing that imports listed in optionalDependencies do not produce violations; the rule’s tests should pass with the expected behavior.
