Research direction

Start by tracing how ncc generates source maps and turns original source paths into relative paths. Reproduce the behavior described for now dev, then identify the existing option and output boundaries that would need to support absolute paths. Done means the option produces absolute original-source paths without changing the default behavior.

Description

enhancement

Would it be possible to add an option to make the source maps output an absolute path rather than a relative path? This would be useful for now dev to show the original source file paths rather than the path where the lambda is being executed.
