Describe the bug
Swiftlint is breaking SwiftUI Previews when used as plugin in SPM package.
When Swiftlint is added as plugin to package, previews engine generates this error:
== PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR:
HumanReadableSwiftError
BuildError: failedToGenerateThunkInfo(could not generate preview info: noTargetBuildGraph)
Without plugin, previews works fine.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure in an SPM package with SwiftLint added as a plugin, using a SwiftUI Preview, and compare it with the configuration without the plugin. The work is done when the preview no longer reports failedToGenerateThunkInfo or noTargetBuildGraph while the plugin remains enabled.
