Missing documentation for exports alternative paths

Description of the problem

Packages documentation is really helpful to understand motivations and practical usage of exports, from the simplest setup to nested conditions, wildcards, etc. However, it seems to lack a description and examples of "alternative paths" within exports, which I think is really powerful stuff, but currently underrated and not very popular (maybe because of the lack in documentation).

With "alternative paths" what I mean is using arrays as follows:

{
    "exports": {
        ".": {
            "development": {
                "types": "./src/index.ts",
                "import": "./src/index.js",
                "require": "./src/index.cjs",
                "default": "./src/index.cjs"
            },
            "import": {
                "types": "./types/index.d.ts",
                "default": [
                    "./src/index.js",
                    "./esm/index.js"
                ]
            },
            "require": [
                "./src/index.cjs",
                "./cjs/index.cjs"
            ],
            "default": [
                "./src/index.cjs",
                "./cjs/index.cjs"
            ]
        }
    }
}

The only hint I found in the documentation, is string[] syntax under exports.

Beside that, there are some mentions around:

• Webpack's official docs citing Node.js behaviour: https://webpack.js.org/guides/package-exports/#alternatives.
• Notable TypeScript issue requesting aligning to Node.js behaviour: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/37928

I think that "alternative paths" is the perfect solution for situations like using your own package without having to build it first during development (e.g., TypeScript, transpiling, polyfilling, etc.)

If there is a spec I would love to update the docs myself.

从 nodejs.org/api/packages.html 的 packages 文档中的「exports」部分开始，并查看链接的 Webpack 和 TypeScript 参考资料，了解替代路径的行为。添加有关数组值导出路径的描述和实际示例，并在文档中明确说明这些示例适用于何时。
