import.meta.glob negative pattern hmr failure

[MoritzLoewenstein]

Describe the bug

import.meta.glob does not hmr correctly when the glob pattern is an array with exclusions, e.g.

import.meta.glob(["./modules/*.js", "!./modules/_a.js"], {
  import: "default",
  eager: true,
});

The same behaviour can be observed when using rolldown-vite (not sure if a separate issue is necessary?)

Reproduction

https://github.com/MoritzLoewenstein/vite-import-glob-repro

Steps to reproduce

Issue 1: Adding a file which matches the glob import

1. npm run dev
2. npm run addMod
3. page does not change

Expected Result: The following should be visible on the page

./modules/included_a.js: foo
./modules/included_b.js: foo

Actual Result: The page stays the same.

The page does display the correct result after manually saving main.js.

Issue 2: Deleting a file which matches the glob import

1. npm run dev
2. npm run addMod
3. save main.js (see above why this is necessary)
4. npm run delMod

Expected Result: This should hmr the file that contains the glob import (main.js)

./modules/included_a.js: foo

Actual Result:

[vite] (client) Pre-transform error: Failed to load url /modules/included_b.js (resolved id: /home/myuser/documents/github/public/vite-import-glob-repro/modules/included_b.js) in /home/myuser/documents/github/public/vite-import-glob-repro/main.js. Does the file exist?

The page does display the correct result after manually saving main.js.
