Description

our svm scanning system relies on Gemfile.lock,
so atm we put a big unless ENV["SKIP_DEV"] around our test/dev gems
to create a new lockfile,
but it would be nice to no need that and have bundle lock --ignore-without

Post steps to reproduce the problem
# Gemfile
gem 'rake', group: :test

bundle
bundle set without test
bundle

cat Gemfile.lock | grep rake # still htere

Research direction

Start by reproducing the commands in the issue with a Gemfile containing rake in the test group, then inspect the bundle lock and bundle set without entry points. The change is done when bundle lock --ignore-without provides the requested behavior while Gemfile.lock remains suitable for the scanner and preserves the expected lock entry.
